Dawes Windrush in build

[PHL67]

My mates Dawes Windrush in the build stage. Will look fantastic when finished.

 

[midlife]

Nice

 

[Drago]

Pleasant indeed.

That looks nice.

 

[woodbutcher]

Splendid, inspired colour combination !

 

[SkipdiverJohn]

That looks very nice. Reminds me I really need to get my Dawes Jaguar fully functional again. Took the rear mech off as it wasn't tensioning chain properly, then got distracted by one of my Raleigh MTB's needing attention..... Currently riding Apollo skip bike and scruffy 1970's Puch 3 speed roadster! Something slightly wrong here, got several quite nice machines - yet using the rattiest ones the most

It may just be the pictures, but the lug lining let's down an otherwise tasty paint job.

 

[SkipdiverJohn]

The lug lining doesn't look bad to me. I doubt I could do it any better, put it that way! When that is all back together with a nice new set of gumwall tyres, I reckon it is going to look absolutely top quality!

 

[Drago]

Aye, may just be the pictures not doing the detail proper justice.

 

[PHL67]

I will post pictures once completed.

 

[PHL67]

Bike now finished. Has been made into a single speed.
Large flange hubs.
Butterfly Nuts on front.
Leather saddle.
Pictures don't do it justice.
A nice ride.

 

[BSOh]

Phwoar that's a lovely looking bike

 

[PHL67]

Now completed as a single speed. Nice ride. Pictures still not great.

Ah...I do like centrepulls.
