  • This is absolutely superb. Loving the strata stem and the badge restoration looks incredible.

  • Thanks, hoped you’d like it :)

  • It looks beautiful - I'm sure Mr. Harrison himself would approve of your work.

    I think he might say: Your target for 2022 should be a sub - hour 25. You've got the bike for it, although I suggest you'll need a bigger chainring for that sort of speed - at least a 52.

    Anyway Clubman hopes you get some enjoyable use from this machine.

  • Cheers @clubman sorry only just seen this! Yes indeed, nice target. I have a decent selection of TA rings, maybe just not the legs :)

  • @veloham, I like your project very much. I had posted asking who did your repro decals, and relating my poor opinion of ones I sourced from H Lloyd Cycles for my own R.O. Harrison frame; but I see on looking more closely that yours probably came from them too -- the giveaway is the exaggerated letterspacing at the very end of "Harriso n" on the downtube logo. Ah, well. I hope you're enjoying yours; my project is just beginning. I guess I'll just need to learn how to use a vector-art program and do it myself, starting with photos of the original decals on my bike. Have seen decals from other sources on eBay, but those don't look any more true to the originals.
    Thanks very much,

  • Thank you, yep it came out nicely. Yes H Lloyd for me, I can't remember for sure but I think part of the reason I went for the Gothic script was the scroll was quite far from original examples I'd seen. I requested water slide rather than vinyl. H Lloyd will print your files for you if you have the skills and patience! Good luck with your project.
