Hey guys, so I've had this 453 Peter Allan for a while and I want to tackle restoring the decals. Besides getting them made, does anyone know where I can get a set, if at all possible?

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks to a good mate (Cippo) who sourced this gem for me in the dark reaches of some obscure bikeshop tucked away somewhere lost in time. Iwill be restoring her to her former glory as the bits and pieces become available.

 

I bring you a 1961ish Cinelli Super Corsa.

Phew, that's a beauty. Are you going to be sourcing a 60's groupo for her?

I purchased this Han

som Super Prestige recently and would like to know if anyone has any information on it? From what I can see the frame is made of Aluminium (Didn't know that Hansom made Aluminium frames). I have tried Google with little success and there doesn't seem to be any specific name other than Hansom.

Thx jd... Yes I am going to try and keep her as original as possible. Looking at the different period correct Colours for the respray at the moment. Are you able to point me in the direction to get the original frame decals perhaps please?

 

You probably already found these links, but here goes anyway:

Heya everybody

 

So I was paging through a friend's 1001 bikes (gotta get my own!) and somehow the thought popped into my head of getting hold of a cx steel frame and mod-fitting it, sort of like what MTBaaisikilist wants to do, but cx frame. Are they even available, and what would they cost?
