OK, thanks. The brakes literally didn't work with the tyres so that had to change. I went with what was already fitted regarding the LX.I appreciate that you have made changes but If I were to purchase it the only bits that would be staying would be the frame fork stem & saddle (& the origional tyres). For me the black LX kit is not a perfect match to the frame. GLWS

Fitting brakes that work? The brake bosses have narrow spacing so the arms of the v brakes rubbed on the tyre. The frame was made for a bottom pull front mech so that was fitted rather than a top pull. Both where NOS. The stem is NOS period correct. I do understand about the tyres and handlebars but I was going to use the bike but plans have changed. As per listing the original bars and stem are included.With all due respect, the ‘upgrades’ you have made have reduced the value of this bike rather than increased it I’m afraid.
