Some quality lids there too. Looks like a great work space

I thought the IRCs with orange sidewalls looked good on the orange bike...better than either of the Wildgrippers - can't go wrong with orange and black

Black or tanwall tyres for orange bike. Rare frame should be the stand out

Bought a saddle of Tom. Better than expected, great price, arrived quickly. Absolutely faultless. Thanks Tom - much appreciated.

I'll take that if it is still available. Dropping you pm

Macretro joke. You won't find it in a bike catalogue Glad to see your bike getting some good feedback.

It's nice seeing fancy expensive bikes on this site, but the likes of this makes me smile more. Top job. Enjoy it. Any relation to the Giant Stoneater?

I hope someone sticks their heads out with bar ends on risers. Just to annoy the style police...

Bought a nice set of shifters off Mark. Great guy to deal with. Thanks again.

Sorted thanks to Walterscot. Apologies for not updating thread and thanks for the offer. cheers

Anyone found/made suitable end plugs for attaching bar ends to thin-walled Ti bars? Looks like the original reinforcement plugs/BERTS were quite thick walled. http://pedaldamnit.blogspot.com/2006/09/titec-118-tale-of-2-berts.html

I just got a lovely set of lightweight Titec Ti bars for a build (thanks Murray). I want to mount bar ends but the bars didn't come with the BERTS - the reinforcing plugs to prevent damage. Any advice what should be using?

Saddle to bar height actually looks quite relaxed by retro standards! But riser bar or shorter stem (with rise) will both sit you more upright. If replacing bar you need 25.4 mm. Modern ones are fatter (31.8 mm) and won't fit through the stem. I don't know if that fork has a 1" or 1 and...
