Meanwhile I have to confess to not quite finishing the project yet, one excuse is that the mudguards have not arrived yet from Singletrack Bikes, and the weather forecast for today was grim down here in 'Sunny Cornwall'. Commuting in on a mudguard equipped tourer was preferable to on a new mudguard-less bike. This meant less motivation to get it done quickly, though if the guards come today I may well finish it off tonight.
Jobs done over weekend:
Final tensioning and truing of rear wheel
Assemble and fit chainset
Fit pedals
Fit front brake
Fit levers
Fit brake cables
Wrap bars
Fit rear rack
Jobs remaining:
Fit rear brake
Fit and adjust gear cable
Check saddle position, bars position
Cut stem
Fit mudguards
