Rideable, but as yet unridden.

NICE!
About time you mowed the lawns though...
Keep your boojwah attitudes to lawncare in Titirangi where they belong.
Nice bike, is it too geekie to ask what chain you are using?
It looks old and suntourish...
Well spotted George- the chain is DID, who made chains for Suntour back in the day.
Can't remember what model it is, but it had flared, plated outer plates, black flattish inner plates.
Usually I use SRAM PC58 with Ultra 6 & 7 freewheels.
That is a real stunner, DB. You have a fine eye for the trim, if you'll pardon the phrase...I bet it's a sharp ride too.
Cheers for the Zues tub carrier as well - please don't forget to email me some bank details! Cheers, Oli
