Did you run into Lloyd Grossman again?

Finished this on sunday. JRJ Path frame with Chater Lea, Airlite, Bayliss Wiley, Renolds & GB Ye Olde English bits. Wolber & jalco (stripped) rims, Belleri bars, Salmon muddies.

Wish Dave Crowe hadn't bothered putting the headtube crest on like I asked him not to, as it doesn't fit between the massive lugs.

Still, I love it.

All courtesy of Furious Tiles for the frame, Dave Crowe (colourtech) for great work (transfer notwithstanding), and to Dale, The Bonk, Keith Wileman in Emsworth (a CTC forum guy) & Madgett's in Diss for essential bits, and Keith at TdV for some help.

No Dale, it's not a fucking dawes.
