And hopefully you will explain that top tube?
How is the Seeley Weslake these days?
Quite a while since you came around Steve, so I can't remember whether I'd had the cancer op' or not.
Anyway a combination of the cancer and the accident has made working a bit of a challenge, i.e, fatigue and some physical problems.
Just grateful I got my road licence returned in the end.
Racing was obviously a no go thing, but be thankful for what you've got I suppose.
Couldn't bring myself to sell the Seeley, but I'd used a few parts on my Thruxton (1200 Hinkley.) and it came out better than I could've hoped, so got to thinking how about building a complete bike.........
There are quite a few pars from the Seeley going on to this, so it's still with me really.
The top tube is 4" longer than stock, steering head lowered 1" and frame raked 2.5 degrees.
Very much a "Show N Go bike" I guess and unsurprisingly represents my biking life since I last had a Commando in the late 70s/early 80s.
