Bit of an update: the bianchi has moved on to pastures new, after having ridden my Dolan to Brighton and on commuting duties I remember how much I loved riding with one gear. SO in predictable fashion I managed to find a used Pompino on gumtree and here we are:
Guards stays need trimming urgently but otherwise its so nice to ride to work and remain dry!
Other jobs for the weekend will be:
Slam stem
Drops and re wiring brakes
Investigate wheel play I've had on my Dolan, think the wheel bearings need replacing
Locate new seatpost and saddle (the ones pictured were taken from the Dolan)
De-sticker rear wheel
Longer term, definitely thinking of putting a wald on the front and respraying. @MechaMorgan has been helpful in explaing the process for the Pinnacle and if I can get close to how that looks I'l be stoked
