not sure about the blue forks unless you are going to have one or two other blue bits on it - however it's a nice bike and a good weight - I like :D
 
I got a cable hanger for my bombers from 'uk bikestore' online, if I remember

Nice bike, I like proflex's without girvins!!!
 
your wish is my command....

Is this enough extra blue Ed?

Bloody forks!

Cheers Ed :? Everytime I look at the bike now the forks stick out like a giant carbunkle.lol. I have access to a set of Girvins but if i'm honest i don't really like the look of them. Ideally I want something that is going to blend in with the frame, but what? Opinions please.
 
IMHO Girvins are the only thing to stick on them - I love them :D

Bar that, dunno really...
 
How about this one.

Someday, I will do a rebuilt. This frame cracked.
