Specialized hardrock finished. Group set is from a trek, I like it! Going to take it for a spin today. Think I'll try and get my partner to use this for touring when we get a chance. This was a freecycle from the forum shout out @T_Unit ! Also shout out @velosaurus who freecycled me a load of useful stuff. Including the pedals which tried to rebuild today but a special tool is needed to tighten them back up. I managed to improvise by dropping in a bearing to temporarily lock up the cone but it I have a feeling the will come loose.
Nice! Yep, my first proper bike was a specialized hardrock, slightly later with 1 1/8 inch fork. Got stolen at school but it was a great bike. No bike ever felt quite as good since!
No I really appreciate it, I really like finding a purpose for things haha!
