  • Thanks, I think it has turned out pretty good.

    that's really nice, I'd love to have the space for something similar.

    Yeah, I'd love to have the space for it as well haha, storring it in a 2 bedroom apartment on second floor can be a challenge sometimes.

    That’s really nice. I agree on the hammered mudguards, it makes it
    look sweeeeet.

    I used to own one of those, it was a really nice bike, but I had some
    issues with the canti spacing and the headset you mention. Plenty of
    bottle cage mounts though. Unfortunately I couldn’t keep it as the
    front didn’t fit me, so the captain bought it.

    I remember the headset being 11/4 though? I could be wrong, but better
    to double check on me before you order CK.

    The canti posts do sit closer than on my Macho Man, and the Deore v-brakes barely fit, but I noticed the other day, that I could probably switch the unevenly sized conical washers around to move the pads out a little.

    Look on the bright side, at least CK 1¼" (pretty sure that's what it will be, not 1.5") is cheaper than NOS Record OR or XTR in that size :)

    You and Simba are right, I remember it's the EC37 cup size, so that's a 1 1/4'', thanks.
