much indebted to lots of folks on the forum for bits, tools, advice on this lockdown project ─ with special mentions to @VeloSurMer for the frame almost a year ago now, and @ectoplasmosis for the crucial headset pressing 🙏🙏
first time i've built up from more-or-less scratch and has been many months in the still feels like a work in progress so any thoughts on where to go from here very welcome.
would be espesh keen to hear if anyone has suggestions for what to do with the cable routing, or knows where i can source more tyres to match the golden Tufo front... which is only hanging in thanks to recent injection of gunky stuff. also i kinda want to lose the HED decal, is that allowed?
in terms of the ride, it's great. light + fast + a just a little bit twitchy in the wind. though if anything the drop is not quite as mental feeling as i thought it might be. almost a little disappointing. but no loving its day-to-day rideability :)
