Im thinking of building a racer from the one that I have but noticed just about everyone changes the steering head. Given it's an molested bike I rather not change the frame. So if you could find one that's been modified already I rather go that way.

Hi Slakewell,
I wouldn’t be to worried about the frame as it is just wasting away under my house.
Just out of interest what changes to steering head are you planning to do? I was unaware of any!
The frame is in Canberra
Cheers .

I normally cut the bearing retainers of the steering head and weld new ones place that change the steering angle to something around 32 decrease.
