...... but I'm going to keep her in Baja Brown with the later DXA pedals, just as I had my bike in 1978. Everything else will be standard.

I managed to get a spare set of Competition Yellow tins should I need to swap over at any point. I'll do a post on the full restoration (all14 years of it!) when she's finished. I'm aiming to be on the road for my 54th birthday - spring 2016! Cheers.

I cheated Steve. As I bought the bike so long ago spare parts were readily available. I just went to a dealer and bought a new pair! Sorry......
