Current Work In Progress

[biggs682]

just a quick brief picture and info of my current work in progress bike , which i will try to finish next week . Its a Raleigh Clubman in great shape , but had been updated to run sti's and threadless forks etc etc so have ditched the sti's and just dropped off at LBS to have original forks fitted . Have also elected to revert back to 27" wheels and centre pull brakes just cant make my mind up re aero levers or not yet so will see what looks best . Cant wait to get it ridden as looks and feels as if should be nice bike so fingers crossed .
