Hi All,
Finally got to the point where I could ride my current project around a bit.
It's a 1960 Hetchins track frame, 531 with lovely Experto Crede curly lugs, and gorgeous head tube badge.
Rather than go for classic components, I went the modern day route, but tried to be a bit subtle and keep the frame as the centerpiece.
Not too keen on the chainring or the tyre wheel combination, but it will do for now.
I know it will offend the purists, but hell that's what they're there for right?!

Riding it as single speed at the moment, plan to HTFU over the summer and flip the wheel to the fixed cog...
(thanks to the guys at 14 for fitting the headset and bottom bracket a few weeks back)
