The mudguard painting went really well, which is good, because everything else about this project is a total ballache. Here's the paint curing. Once its fully dry, I need to add the little gold stripes, for authenticity points.
I've only now discovered that Sturmey Archer axles have a unique thread size. The nut on the non drive side was f***ed, as it was never the right size in the first place.
But axle problems are nothing compared to chainguard problems. The shop supplies the thing in one piece, but expects you to cut the necessary holes in it yourself.
