Got this baby from Mark Pinder(80's pro) a while ago. Unfortunately the chrome is badly pitted and needs to be restored:

What a beautiful frame. Feel free to post as many detailed high-resolution pics as the servers can handle. Makes me green with envy.

Still have my Claud Butler Shamon, mtb1989, Reynolds 501(not 531 sadly!) Campag Thor front, Maviic rear rims, 1989 XT mechs, Onza and Mavic chain rings, Rock ring chain ring protector (bash rings ain't new) and even a Girvin Flexstem! Bike is semi retired after my 1992 Norway to Cape Town ride. Have fixed it up with the racks and fresh tyres to ride Critical Mass, looking forward to it!

Okay.. we're on our way.

 

Frame is decalled - not exactly to spec, but I don't care.

 

I think she'll be a stunner when she's finished.

Agreed, the OLMO is looking super at the moment and is going to be a nice ride!

Passed that frame onto a friend, but still have most of the groupset for my Eddy Merckx restoration.

I need some help in finding the bottom attachments which will allow the seatpost to function.

 

Anyone have some lying about, or know where i may find some?

 

Any help hugely appreciated!
