Took it out for the first test ride - like a dream!
Then gave it a torough clean and polish under England's blistering sun.
For those who want to know:
Frame is a KHE, made in Germany.
Wheels are 24" 72h with 24x3 white Street Hog semi slicks.
White seat, grips, and pedals are NOS, courtesy of my cellar.
Stem and handelbars are from my Dyno Glide (which has new black parts in exchange).
Fork is the usual Taiwan springer.
The really tricky bit on this one was to obtain a fitting seat stem clamp. The seat tube is so thinwall, that it is impossible to tighten up the normal 25.4 ones. I thus took a 22.2 and machined it on a lathe to fit.
