I love DB smoke paint jobs.

That is all.

Me too

Taliesyn,

Can we see a pic of yours, please?
My brother had one of those. Very cool.

Cam

Sure. Here you go

Further to my first post in the thread, I did change the pedals (and the pic was taken about 10 minutes ago after giving it a good clean)

taliesyn, that bike is lush!

One of my all time favourite paintjobs.
Wasn't it 6speed still in 89?

Thanks gump

It was 7 speed when I got it. I actually bought it in 1990, and it was an ex-hire bike that had been out 3 times (as it's a big frame), and it was mint.

The rims are a bit ropey on it now, and a couple of decals are shot, but it's not bad for an old girl I suppose

I was clearing some stuff from the attic the other week and I found the receipt for my original helmet (a cloth covered polystyrene jobbie with a single chinstrap and no size adjustment if I remember correctly lol) which I bought at the same time. Showing my age now

For Sale

Just so you know the bike is going up on ebay this week if anyone is interested....looking for €150 for it.

Let me know and I could do a Buy It Now or Paypal Invoice.
