If you can get the forks out, the frame number may be on the steerer tube.

Selling It?

I'd like to bid on it if you want to sell it...

Just finished my PACE MTB that took a year to do which is being used as often as I can off road and now looking for a road project just like yours to do the same detailed period build and to use, not just look at!

 

[any123]

Right i have decided that i cant find any info on this bike so i am donating it to the retro forum for a small fee for someone to lovingly restore and use.

tahnks andy

You name the donation and Ill make it. pmd you

Plans for it are a full respray at argos cycles with appropriate decals. I like that red colour so will probably keep it that way. Original is the way to go.

Possibly getting that lovely bar combo rechromed, if its not too expensive as its a lovely piece of work.
I have sheriff stars I havent used and are lying around and this frame is perfect, ive been looking for one with track ends for months.
