I like the coloured bar tape. Black would look good for sure but being brave has payed off on that one!

Got excited, bought these... not sure they are actually track though... thoughts? They have a reinforced bit on the back for a brake which strongly suggests no...

Really enjoyed this thread. Great to see all your hard work pay off.
Thinking of painting my front rim black. Humbrol you say? Did you have to prime the rim first?

Cheers, to be honest it still needs a day of work... polish up post, bars and stem, adjust seat, tighten headset etc...
Just used a paint brush straight on to the rim for touching up with Humbrol, not perfect but not toooo bad.

^^ ha thanks Dan.
Minor tweaks Chris! Look forward to checking out proper pics.
I use a front brake on mine so it might be madness painting it in the first place.

It's Colner, another brand produced by Colnago on 80s, to discover if it's really a track fork you should measure the rake (offset), if about 30mm or lower it's track.

Trying to decide whether to put those Colner forks on this bike or my Viner... on here they would need some work, Viner is pub bike so doesn't matter... hmmm...
Cleaning the pedals and repainting the rims... first is a bore, second requires a pot of humbrol paint...
