Am I? Did we all agree it was a Tourer and not an MTB per se?

Then I owe you a second picture, now mounted with 1995 Karrimor bags..
I don't have a build thread apart from some wheel building questions I asked.
The bike was made as #1 of three bikes I'm keeping, my g/f said to not look at expenses and build it like I wanted to.
Which I did, drop bars are also fully taped in now which means it is indeed ready..

The Vittorio is jumping up and down at the back for attention, it wants to be in the contest too.

@Spankyfart clever use of those bars to fit a Rohloff shifter! Most other Rohloff-drops combos have looked a kludge.

Yeah they are basically handlebar extenders from ali.
Takes some getting used to but most of the time my hands rest around there anyways.
