Away from LEJOG for a min I've just finished my first project bike its for my son he wanted a fixed speed, so i searched high and low for a donor bike it had to be steel and Reynolds is the best eventually found a old Ribble with a 531 competition frame at the right price. I striped it all down resprayed it sold parts i didn't need, the only original parts are frame, forks ,saddle, stem, modolo brake caliper and one lever and bars which i turned over and chopped. total build time from start to finish 3 weeks and I'm really chuffed with it and rides like a dream, don't know whether i fancy doing LEJOG on it but it would be a challenge Mmmm!!.
Hope you like pics cheers Steve.
