Just recently put this together after a long time away from riding. It's thing of beauty.

My newest purchase is 4 weeks old now (positively archaic by my standards) but I just ordered some new tyres - does that count? I can do pics when they arrive ๐Ÿ˜›

I've alerted the authorities for you.

WilleJ, what size is the breath? It looks like a 16"? How tall are you?

I fancy one for a local/winter build.

Hey Hora, you're right, it is a 16". I'm 5'10" with a 32" inside leg and it fits like a glove. Makes me wonder if I've always had frames that are too big.

First flight will be on October 6th if I can wait that long, earlier if we can do it without his mum finding out.

It looks like a quality job. It even has a proper V brake.
