  • Ah seen yours before when Flickr-ing (That doesn't sound as good as Googling...) it's lovely :) Can't beat stamped crown forks, what do you use to protect chrome?

    I heard Vaseline is good, as water sets in those stamps which then get under the chrome and starts Trouble. Fork on mine needs rechromed at some point, it's shot on top.

    Mine doesn't have lug lining and lugs seem to have a slightly different shape. Will post more pictures nearer the time and throw in some higher res ones.

    You can't beat chrome lugs either, I must have magpie dna because I can never resist a nice bit of chrome!

    I think the Christobal had a few revisions over the years. You've probably come across it, but there's an amazing one on the Ray Dobbin's website and that has slightly different detailing.

    I just wax mine with autoglym although it only goes out when the weather is perfect. As you can imagine, that isn't a lot!

    I know a good chrome company who've just done a stem for me in the F. R. Russell post. http://www.lfgss.com/thread103936.html Good value as well so PM me if you're interested.
