The components came from early 80s Ricardo, frame made in Australia from Japanese Tange steel tubing, that was accident damaged and better level of components than the Repco. Jeff

Nice restoration, I'm doing the same with mine - making it into a fixie. Thanks, -Jeff Hi:

There needs to be more of this recycling of bikes. There is such a waste of stolen then dumped bikes in most suburbs.
