Pinstripes
Masked and painted in the gold pin stripes between blue upper and silver sheen lower parts of the fuel tank. Doesn't look quite as good as a hand-painted stripe by some old geezer in a brown overall, but it'll do just fine.
Rubber
The trials tyres arrived, so I've wrapped them round the rebuilt rims. The 4x18 rear is pretty easy to find in a variety of vintage-looking brands (this is a Bridgestone) but 19-inch trials tyres are now a rarity. This is an Ensign, and it matches the look of the old Dunlop Trials Universals pretty well.
