I think I found a replacement project! A black Peugeot haven't seen it in the flesh yet going tomorrow.
It looks ok in the pic but the chrome on the forks looks rusty, I know it's old and can't be expected to be perfect
So as long as the rust is made up of spots it's lookin good.

Help bought the Peugeot mentioned above took the back wheel off and found a crack in the frame where the rear drops fit to the bottom bracket, absoluely gutted is there any way this can be welded safely,
Woldnt want to risk a bad accident, i know i know nothing checked out the frame superficial rust it seemed fine couldnt see the crack as it was v small with a bit of rust in an akward place, ive a feeling its a done deal but advice would be welcome :B)

Compared to when I had drops on here, I'm now using a 10mm shorter stem and red bar tape.

The combined effect has made me at least 17% faster discussing the changes in the pub.
