Forgive the crappy Hipstamatic picture (can add more and better later) but I just got this back from Armourtex this morning. It's my first build...
British racing green powdercoat on a 1980s, I think, Raleigh Flyer frame, Rigida wheels laced to Quando hubs (this will change when money allows), BLB freewheel, BLB short crescent bars, BLB Pista Vera crank, no-name quill stem, no-name seat post (looking for a 24.5mm Aero-style post if anyone knows of one), Brooks, B17 Narrow saddle, crappy grips that will be replaced with cork grips or tape when time allows. For now, though, I'm quite happy with it. If anyone has any ideas re parts I'm looking for etc, feel free to add your 2p's worth and thanks.
