Bikes, Bikes, Bikes......projects and riding

Under-chainstay U-brake, nice!

I've had a retro-cull so I've got no parts left, well none worth more than £5 and these:

1990 Kona Fire Mountain
1992 Orange Prestige

At least just having two means they get ridden a lot and as niether one cost more than £150 to build so I'm not inclined to sell them to free up cash either.

Oh crap, I dont have a current project bike! I must make quick amends.

Currently own (spread out between 3 top secret UK locations)

Retro bikes:
Marin Team- Finished in 1995 and still going strong today!
Pace RC100- Finished
Pace RC200- Finished
Pace RC500- Finished
Roberts Genesis- Finished

Modern bikes:

Looking at the list makes me think I should consider changing my user name to "Rob- 4 retro, 1 modern and a commuter bikes max" :LOL:
