Big Dynatech frame...........

The frame is a 24", curiously the forks do make it look bigger than it is. I will post a photo when it is built. Hopefully it will look more in proportion. I am not, in case you were wondering, freakily tall (6 foot 3). the groupset will be 1055 (8 speed). I am in need of a braze on front mech and a right hand sti lever. Not sure about wheels, whether I should go for a second hand 'period' wheelset or not. I did get some old wheels with STX hubs for a Kona project but the hubs were shagged. I might go for a new set, at least they will be in mint condition from the outset.

It'll probably take a 26.4mm post, but I could well be wrong.

It did take a 26.4 post. And here it is, kept in its raw state for the time being and built up as a 1 x 9. A real jumble of retrobike purchases.
