Lana’i freed from its bottom bracket by LBS.
Donor bike is now taken apart - will keep the 3x8 setup for now (#savethetriple), but will have to use another front derailleur because of going from 34.9 to 31.8 seat tube. Do Shimano MTB 3x front derailleurs have the same pull ratio or will I run into issues?
Measured the 1993 Deore XT bottom bracket axle - 107 mm. Promised myself to spare my thumb and just get a new one for the new build, but can’t find a place with both UN55 and Schwalbe Table Tops in stock, so we’ll see what happens.
Component cleaning will happen tonight - pictures tomorrow.
