Bit of a ballache.
Fitting the cross top levers while half cut is maybe not ideal. Was starting to wonder if the cable pull ratio was out of whack for levers-to-calipers.
Seem to have the rear working.
Front next.......
Wopped on the new lever and not cutting the bars quite as short as i could just yet.
Trip to Condor was dangerous. All the sale frames are wrong size for me, i was left alone in the basement for several minutes...... started pinging tubes (flick em) Pista has a lovely ping, Tempo is proberly more suitable with more braze on's.
Did ask about colour options, Black or Grey off the peg, anything else is custom extra dorras.
Condors, steel Vigs, the alu Dolan's days may be numbered, more so when comparing weights and there ain't much in it on the frame sets.
Still nice day in the city, saw a matt black fixed Dolan in the wild near Condor, must be a good omen, reminding me i have one :)
What is worrying is i have seen more Foffas in the wild city streets roaming than Dolans....
