Its me that got them both and nope, no plans to do anything other than build up and ride or admire. Ive some rc35s for the orange one, 92 forks so bit too new but hey ho.
I wànted a clockwork in 89 more than anything, drooled most weks at them at the windsurfing place at Manley down the road from our office. Couldnt afford one, ended up with a Raleigh avanti, nice enough but not the dream.
91 progressed to an alpinestar, in 94 got a P7, had two others after that then proflexes, and on and on through all sorts of stutt like a Maverick ml7, Spot singlespeeds etc and now have 3 Singular Swifts.....but that 89 clockwork has always been in my head, so now I get the chance to sort one (2) out.
Recently done the same with road bikes so just finished an 82 Raleigh Rapide and an 83 Pennine, with an 82 Raleigh Gran Sport and 85 Specialized Allez to finish. They wont be sold either. The good lady has even agreed to bikes being hung on the walls of the dining room as the garage is full and she sees them as art....so its a winner all round.
So nope, just building and riding no selling on.....
