Very nice. I dislike yellow bikes but this would be the exception. Everything about it feels correct.

Here’s another rare rag to riches conversion. Not a fan of the yellow, but I really like this bike. I can appreciate the work that must have gone into its restoration. Frame must be a bit to large because your saddle looks a little low, although I really shouldn’t say anything because I dislike it when people give bike fitting advice based on pictures on the internet.

It’s my baby!!! (just kidding)
Thank you for the good words man.
You are 100% correct. The frame is too large for me. But i still ride it , it’s kinda comfy too. I even manage to enjoy it sometomes. I Think that i developed very strong personal attachment during the restoration process. I have to love it as it is
Have a good one mates.
