Work in Process - classy brit
Jeirvine found this on his local CL and was kind enough to facilitate for me. The wheels that came with it were, to say the least mis-matched. The front is a 32h, 700c, gold anodized magic tubular. The rear sports a 27', 40h, clincher ambrosio. Matching either rim has proven to be difficult thus far and I'm trying to keep it with that British flair. I'm planning on putting on strong light 93s, cotton tape and campy cable clamps. I'm afraid of really cleaning up the paint because the decals have definitely seen better days. Needless to say I will not be repainting it.
I've also made contact with Peter Matthew's shop in Liverpool. He's apparently more known for wheel building then frame building and I haven't seen anything about Pete Matthews built bicycles on line. I'm thinking this might be a contracted job for his shop.
