I have asked the seller again if he could share the video but he said there on VHS, hopefully I can get a copy and somehow get in on a PC.Nice, look forward to updates and seeing it restored.
Will you be uploading the video of JMC riding this bike? also can i ask how the seller came to be in possession of the bike and did they say what happened to the original parts, or why they were changed?
The forks sound really interesting I will send you a PMfollowed this with interest over on the auction watch area, totally love this… is the headset 1 inch? if so have some Mag 21s (with a black Rockshox Bontrager geometry corrected crown - not something used in the original spec by the looks of it, so undertand if not of interest)
If they were , maybe we couod swap forks? My local bike shop mechanic is a former TF tuned specialist, so can get them checked over.
Good luck with the build process, the MBUK Salsa JMC & Sophie B was quite the inspiration for quite a few of us back in the day (massive understatment obviously!) Love the fact your also having the restoration conducted by the original bike mechanic , bike shop. Fantastic, thankyou for sharing.
