Just thought the thousands of you who offered advice a couple of weeks back might like to see how it turned out. Built it up today, and am loving it. It's a 1965, Ron Cooper-built Gillott in 531, simple lugwork, original paint and decals, lots of original Campag gear (but a bit less now) and plenty of scratches, but I like a bit of patina. Massive thanks to Andy from Fixed Gear London for the help, for building the rear wheel same day and for selling me the right bits at Cavendish...
And to think I was considering buying a Langster London before I found this forum. Seriously, thanks.
This is how it started...
Here it is nekkid...
And here it is fixed...
