The rest appears to be correct, frame, forks etc. However, I am no expert being a G4 Newbie myself so there maybe others in the club that can offer an oppinion... Cheers, Paul.

I have an alex rims FD 28 front wheel on a Kore hub, but it is missing the back wheel. I has an aligned set of scratches on one side where it was put on the roof and obviously rubbed on the canoe. I am trying to do some more research to bring it back to original and hope someone here has the info I need. The picture you have shown has different rims, not sure of the make, but my "MTB" friends will be able to tell me that. I'll call on to the stand at Peterborough - I have a 62 series 2a, an ex Factory Demonstrator (probably) 1984(A) Land Rover 90 CSW in almost original condition, and a 1998 ex Factory 110 SW, so have the LR bug quite badly - saw the bike and knew it was right - does having the bike mean I can join the club ? Any info/photos gratefully received. Kind Regards Stephen (close to Cambridge, UK)

Well done sir, if you are going to Peterborough please bring it along to the G4 stand so that we can ogle over it and take some pics. Have fun and hope to speak to you soon. Regards Paul.
