Early 80's Dave Yates - Reynolds 531 frame & forks, Shimano 105 compact groupset except for the tektro deep drop calipers, Ritchey seatpost 26.8mm, fsa bar/stem & mavic aksium wheels/tyre combo.

Still need to set up the gears & just bought a campagnolo seat pin bolt & a black fsa stem cap.

An '86 RRA, not quite finished yet, the freewheel is a cheap shimano, need to source a decent chrome one. The brake levers have been changed from the original drilled weinman to some slotted weinman ones as the hoods were perished, but have found some new hoods now just need to check they will fit correctly. Shimano 600 transmission.

Love that RRA

Thanks Spokesmann, I'm quite pleased with how it turned out. I originally bought it for the frame, was going to modernise it for more upright comfort but when I realised how original it was, ie even the bar tape is original, the mudguards the lot, it instead turned into my first full restore of which I'm quite pleased as a first job. Plenty of advice received here and elsewhere it was real fun. Will take it somewhere nice and get some decent pics.
