• Anyone want to suggest some frame mods for this? Literally anything considered as long as it's cheap and doable by a complete novice (no replacing headtube etc. for now)

    (Ignore my awful cabling, I'm just making do until I weld these bits on)

    At the moment I am thinking:

    1. ditching the band-on shifter boss and welding a downtube boss on to the top tube
    2. disc brake tabs (plus a strut for reinforcement) on the rear
    3. cable tie guides down both seat stays for full length outers.

    Just want to learn a bit of welding and this frame is my test bed. Any other suggestions? Some parts for a dynamo might be fun but not sure what's needed for that?

  • I've got some cheapo black rattlecans in my cupboard, just waiting for a quiet dry day where I'm at home all day so I can get a few coats done. If I weld disc tabs on I'll end up getting a disc fork though so probably won't invest too much effort into it.
