Hi guys noob dropping in. Just picked up my C16 again, I have had it since new. Foolishly last summer I loaned it to a work mate who left it out all winter here in Finland. Until then it was rather molly coddled well other than the old days when. We did cross country.
It was one of the very first as my father was a Tushingham sails dealer back in the day and so after I was run over on my old Checker Pig bike. He made a deal with Lester I think for a bike for me, originally a clockwork but then changed for a C16 as it was due the replacement due out. I must of been 15/16 at the time as nearing the end of my school time. Making it 93/94ish anyway I have since then only liked one bike more and that was a p7 ex team bike my father has he used for competing.
Will get a pic up later but it's a bone stock bike, even has one original megabyte z tyre I think as I used to have others I swapped on for commuting or road runs.
Found this thread as I decided today to drop it into a shop for a refurb and and set up as cables have gone rusty after a winter outside
