Fitted the mudguards with no real issues. The Zefal Paragon’s annoy me because they’re about 5cm too short at the chainstay bridge (see photo). I had that issue on another build as well that I fixed with an Ass Saver. These will only be temporary until I get VO Zeppelins. These do sit over the tyres nicely considering I originally had them on an old MTB with 26” wheels though.
Also fitted the chain and connected the brakes. The rear feels fine, the front is a bit squishy. I’ll play around with the pads tomorrow and cable pull. Might just be the brakes.
Haven’t worked on the rear derailleur yet. I’ve never dealt with this type before so I need some time to figure it out.
