91 Klein Backfire Adroit ,Nearly done
- Thread starter viengsavanh
- Start date
My Klein Attitude hanging in the loft at home - one day I'll get a refurb as the paint is faded (it does have a brand new full XCPro group though including greaseguard hubs and pedals, MD chainset etc, correct Klein tyres and grips - so it will also be great again one day when repainted, but obviously I want to do it properly when I do and some might: say leave it factory original as it is. A tricky decision - but its always nice to see them. Your Adroit looks the business
mk.1 XTR M900 would be nice
