Getting a black saddlepost, stem and would like your ideas on what (cheap) handlebars you would suggest.
Also, I keep on having play in my headset.. any tips&tricks?
Thanks!

Looks good-
Just need some grips
Not familiar with that frame, any good?
Looks great. I just put a set of those tires on my 87 Fisher.
I am under the impression that your front tire is reversed
Can’t really tell because the photo only shows from the waist down, but I’ll give it a shot. Slightly above average height, athletic, curvy, muscular. Lol.. nice bike.
Ooo, pretty frame. I think it’d look great with whatever riser bar you can find in your price range and some olds-cool Oury grips.
On the headset, I don’t mean to insult your intelligence, but have you adjusted it? If that doesn’t fix the play, maybe replace and repack the bearings. Also, make sure the nut in the steerer is nice and tight.
Reminds me of my old Yeti FRO. Love the gold chainring and the cables. Get the headset looked at. I’m not an expert, but it could be a larger issue, like frame damage, causing the headset to be sloppy. Hope not, but do get it checked. Replace it if needed, or maybe it just needs to be tightened and adjusted. They can be tricky. Get professional help.
I like the color of the bars. If you have to change them, go with silver to match the seatpost. Good luck with the bike.
Wow, cool bike really like this frame and the tyres! Could you share some info on the drive train? As far as I see it’s a vintage Deore crankset, but what’s the chainring, casette and the rear derailleur?
As for the headset play – it also looks odd on the picture. Are you sure you hammered on the crown race on the fork?
Ps.: I just posted my Wheeler a few days ago, check that out too! 🙂
