The actual metal Falcon head badge is very nice. Glad you are happy. It will be going to the charity next week I hope.
Lovely gesture to donate it and make someone happy. Tyres look practical and really good. Guinessisgoodforyou

Thanks you gents. Decals have arrived, same as fitted. Black, gold outline, very stealthy. Only bought down tube decals.

Cabled, decaled needs taping. Will need adjustments after a road test. Its pissing down at the moment. Genuine 1970s Shimano brake cable clips 
Chain is dry like the Sahara.

Well, it's been road tested. It's silent which is always nice. The pond scum Shimano mechs work better than they look. Brakes are ok, steel rims. Grab a handful and you stop. I've dropped the seat post from it's dangerous height. It was there so I could ride it. It was marginal. Made a few minor adjustments. It's finished and hopefully off to the charity today as I need the space.
Considering all the parts fitted were from the metal scrap bin it's made a nice unassuming bike.

I may have seven bicycles turning up next week. Two are not mine. I'm frantically clearing space. I might as well stand on the pier and piss in the sea...
