Conversion
 

Hello Everyone here my new bike conversion from a Bridegstone MB-5
Complete strip down and repainted 6 coats of paint. All new handle bars shifter's,Crank and derailleurs. It was in bad shape a lot of rust.http://bikeforums.net/attachment.php...hmentid=461461

Looks pretty good. Who did the paint and decals?

looks good.

Looks nice

EXCEPT

why put a Bridgestone "700" label on the downtube? It's not a 700. It's not even close. I get that it's no longer a "MB", either. Come up with your own unique model number, like you came up with a uniquely adapted bike.

(Mis-labeled bikes are a huge pet peeve of mine. This isn't as disingenuous as the many fake "Colnago" or "Pinarello" bikes out there, but it's still inaccurate and confusing)

Rant over.

Kudos to giving an old bike new life. I'm putting the most miles on an '88. Ride the heck out of yours! (once you finish the build)

I did all the painting and decals my self 6 coats of paint.

Because I cloud not fine any others close enought

Sweet!

Great job with that paint! :thumb:

^^ Agreed!
