i've used it for about 3 years, but it's been sitting in my garage not being used for the year (i've been riding the Denti), so i've decided to take apart and re-build with the hope of using it in 2015.
so the frame is a very early 70's holdsworth super mistral.
it was about to be taken to the tip so i thought i'd give it a try as a SS.
it was black hammerited so i stripped and had a £50 paint job done, whilst at it put a campag headset in and managed to get some 27" tange chrome forks (as new) from my local charity bike shop for a fiver.....
wheels will be unfortunately 700c meaning the clearances won't be close, but record hubs on omega rims.
cinelli stem and bars (need some proper taping), gran sport cranks....
have a Milremo suede saddle and campag seatping bolt
theres a few things i'd like to change, but it's getting there again!
