Currently looks like this
Had loads of issues with finding a new bottom bracket and headset (compatability like you say) and ended up just regreasing the old ones and putting it back on, seems to work ok.
Building it up as a geared bike, have a single speed atm and wanted to have another one to deal (when I am feeling lazy) a bit easier with the 1 hill I have near me ha.
Not sure about the grips and brake, just old stuff I had lying around so may change them but other than that new chain and tyres and it should be nearly ready to go.
@anna I got mine of ebay from some guy near winchester who had a massive warehouse of old bikes, best shot is ebay or a local dump or something I guess.
