AndrewEH1 Posted May 10, 2012 Report Share Posted May 10, 2012 I think you paid too much A good project though - the rust looks a bit of a worry. Is it as bad as it looks in the photo? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
err Posted May 10, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 10, 2012 it's worse! i like it as is, gives it some character. it's only meant to be a cheap hack for fun really, it won't get ridden hard, just cruising about with my kids mainly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke Dunstan Posted May 11, 2012 Report Share Posted May 11, 2012 I'd restore that properly, I can picture it already. Fresh paint and some TLC that thing would look insane. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

err Posted May 11, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 11, 2012 I'd restore that properly, I can picture it already. Fresh paint and some TLC that thing would look insane. i'd like to, but i have a budget of roughly zero due to getting laid off! it would look nice though is that a brookes saddle? it certainly is, there was no saddle with it and i had the brooks laying around from another project. it's super comfy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
