Arkose by any other frame

I think it'll just about clear a 622x40. Will borrow a friends wheel to check (hopefully tomorrow). Looks like it might do the job though.

Things to do if I get it:

• buy some low-riders or some other sort of front rack
  
• sort out front guards - it's a shame only one of them's disappeared; I have to either source a matching front one, have non-matching ones or throw the rear away.
  
• longer stem, remove some spacers
  
• swap these brakes for HY/RDs or something similar. These are Hayes CX5 and don't seem great so far. Might be alright with some adjustment or new pads though. And maybe new rotors too.
  
• remove dork disc obviously
  
• new tyres, possibly new wheels as the rear especially feels pretty hefty. Maybe keep these for touring as they look pretty bombproof.
  
• swap over bottle cages, groupset, etc. from old bike
  
• new cables, new tape, etc. - all round service
  
• consider a full-length-outer conversion?
  
  

It's a long way away from an Arkose...
