Got this hand me down for christmas:
Will be replacing this:
Way less character, and hideous suspension corrected fork, but disc brakes and mudguards will make life easier.
The ratty Luongo had a bit of a headcrash a long time ago, making handling when slippery very exciting. And a lot of its parts are on the way out. Will keep it running, but more as a poser rat.
Orange thing will get fatter tires, sweeping bars, a front rack and eventually dnamo lighting. Hope I get used to those mtb brifters, they are a bit stupid.
Not sure about the colour. I kind of like it, but its somewhat visible for a bike that will be locked up?
Already invested in a bigger lock, but am thinking about one quick layer of black.
Also the first time making hydraulic work again. Compared to fiddling old cantis, its one big improvement.
