Cranky Chain Cycles
Finally riding a big boys bike
Torn. Should I go all out on the restoration or keep the patina? I'm getting a lot of pressure from my mechanic father-in-law to do an all-out resto. New chrome, paint, etc etc. He could care less about keeping it original; he insists on showroom condition. Me, if the decals are good they stay. The decal on the chainguard is in good shape. All other decals are pretty meh. The problem is having part of the bike looking new and other parts are used but fixed.
The chain is stiffer than a ministers pecker. Rust has destroyed the stem and handlebars. I don't know if the rims are salvageable. The fenders needs serious help or replacement.
