This looks absolutely great! I did a little restoration on a 80's Peugeot recently, converted it to a fixie but it didn't turn out half as good as this! Will look even better with the bar tape

well thats what i thought when i saw the photo, i dont know whether you're a photographer by profession or not but personally id be writing them an email with a bill attached, explaining they either need to change the wording and credit you, or pay for your services.
