Not a Bomber, but at last a chance to right a long term wrong. I finally found a semi decent Sun Solo racer at Easter. Had to travel a bit to get it, but it was worth the journey. Mechanically sound, this 10 gear racer is the same as the five gear one my parents bought brand new for me aged 14 - which I gave away to the local 'Bikes for Africa' appeal in my mid-twenties (doh!). This one is an '83 frame according to the numbers, so it would put it as being sold around the same time as my original one too. Cosmetically the Chrome and metal work are good, but the picture flatters the paint somewhat. Longer term, if I can find someone to reproduce the graphics (anyone know of someone that would do one-off's?), I'd like to strip the paint and have it re-done in two pack. Meanwhile, I'm enjoying it as it is and appreciating even more what a comfortable saddle the Bomber has after spending time on the razor blade this one is fitted with!
