Hi everyone.
Here are a few early build photos of my next project.
It is a special which has been built to ride & is not meant to replicate any specific greeves model.
The doner frame is a 1957s scramble frame, with the later taper bearing h/stock which i have swaged the mainframe tube down to fit onto the earlier bolt on rear section.
I have modified the engine cradle & footpeg area to accomadate the c15 engine which is quite a snug fit in there, the rear loop is also a new design.
The forks are mds with the older style link arm, all new bushes, in fact every thing on this bike is new, alloy rims, stainless spokes, seat, shocks, powdered hubs etc. the h/bars are courtesy of adrian dickerson.
The paint is not moorland blue by choice although the colour is a lot darker than pictures show.
I am hoping to finish by mid feb sort out any problems before the start of the season, (fingers crossed) dave
