Hi All
Bought this frame as I was after the Colnago and Campy bits but thought the frame deserved a new life
Frame is a little early for a Panasonic (1984); this frame 1982, but previous owner has converted a Raleigh Rapide 12 into this (first photos); he put lots of nice bits on it.
I have cleaned most of the bits up for later builds and SOLD the stem (more fool me)
Talked to Dave Marsh to see if this was worth a bit of effort; he agreed it did.
Repaint by Universal Cycles and rebuild by me
Most 600 Shimano group with triumphe headset, turbo saddle, SR seat post
Been on it today, enjoyed it and quite light and fast
Lovely colour scheme design by Gerald O Donovan; pleased with the result
Photos found to finish
Best Regards
Richard
