I'd be lying if I said I hadn't been on retrobike this morning having a look for something pretty to hang on my wall/stand in the corner of my living room.

after some RC-35 Pace forks I wasn’t tempted by an RC-200 bike. Though they did look interesting with the external butting/machining.
interesting that these things, especially the Fuquays, are effectively museum pieces.
