That's nice. I like the Eddie Irvine (?) Pace forks.

Ahhhh a real Pace, lovely - even in ano overload. Wish I'd grabbed one "back in the day" or maybe not - I like my back.

It is a bit multi-coloured 😆

I'm just awaiting some black cable outers, black Hope headset and black handlebars to tone it down a bit 8)

I'd love to get hold of an RC45 stem 😀

That would finish it off a treat 8)

Here are a couple of updated pictures after I made a few alterations 😀

That is a thing of beauty my friend, you are a very lucky man 😀

If its not too much of a cheek, how much money is needed to put together something like that?

Matt.

It stands me quite a bit to be honest, £1200 😳

But I love it to bits and was led by my heart rather than my head 😀

It would pass pretty much a brand new bike it's immaculate.

I could have got one that had been used a lot more for less.

amplebrew - i have 2x Pace (Ahead)stems 100mm and 120mm in black. Not sure if they are RC45s. Both only take flatbars and cnc machined, ano black. They have like 'bullit sculptures'on each side reminding me of the old gun ports on Meshershmitts. Are you interested?

Hi scruzer, I managed to get a Pace team issue one piece stem and steerer; so I'm sorted on that front now.

Thanks for the offer though 8)
