  • Thanks for the kind words guys. Yeah the paint is rad @haveo, there was a tandem for sale a while back with the same style. It's my first 853 frame and I keep on thinking that it would be killer as a road bike but what ya gonna do. As @countryboj wrote it's too nice to pass on.
    Well that's kinda subjective and it still needs some tweaks @BlesUp but thanks man. It's special but not that special @B0N0R haha (not entirely sure that you meant that tbh).
    @TM really? I was thinking cloth tape for a cleaner look. Nice and simple.

  • Thought the right colour would pop with the frame, cloth tape would Ok.

    I would keep the shifters and levers.

  • I get what you mean but those bars always look better with cloth tape. The shifters and levers are staying for now but will eventually get replaced, in the long run that is. They're from an 80's Shimano mtb group I've got. They're well made, robust and simple. Built to last.
