* Indicates new replica part. Also it has brand new gear and brake cables, cable outers, brake blocks, inner tubes, bar tape, tyres and chain.
The old saddle was broken and I could not find a decent replacement, instead it has a leather Charge saddle, which I paired with matching new bar tape and toecage straps. If you want the original saddle it was a Selle Royale Aero pearl white. Otherwise it is as close to original looking as I could get.
For the final touch, 2 new replica Rayleigh bottles to match the period.
