Everyone loves the look of a retro steel bike, but while classic components can be stylish, they simply don't perform as well as modern tech (as Manon found on her 100-mile ride on a £100 bike!). Alex wanted to know whether he could revive the very retro frame from that video to bring it into the 21st century by fitting modern components. The results were pretty stunning!
