1980's Ernie Clements

[Illaveago]

Bit of me time this morning so I stripped the Galaxy. I couldn't resist loosely putting some parts onto the Clements frame to get an idea of how it would look.

I was just reading your first post again .
Wouldn't it be better to sell your Dawes Galaxy complete to fund your Ernie Clements build ? Surely the Galaxy would be worth more and more sought after and so get a better price ? You could buy a cheap donor bike with the components that you need .

Too late it's stripped. I did consider selling the Galaxy but I'd have to find/pay for a suitable donor and refurbish parts again which I've already done for the Galaxy.
I'll be selling the Dawes frame which should more than cover the cost of the powder coat.

A bit more work on the Clements. Just the chain and cables to do.

Chain and cables done. Finally finished.
