Wanted it on in a hurry and told myself I’d redo it at some stage.. don’t judge!
Re. The saddle, am considering a shower cap seat cover (how does one secure a tesco bag?) but currently am looping my chain through it as @Skülly has suggested. Chain is just about long enough though, so will make locking around bigger objects a pain if it ever gets to it.. it’s a shame but I’m considering swapping out a saddle just for the peace of mind of being able to lock up and come back to a bike I can still ride home!
On an unrelated note; for the more knowledgeable amongst you, does anyone know if this 753 specimen is likely to date from the early 90s..?

Just built up this baby after getting the frame from @Pancake and thought I’d share over here! Originally meant as a beater with a mishmash of parts, and gradually decided it was too nice for that.. Now all it’s missing is a silver 135BCD crank, and forgive the poor bar tape wrapping! Currently trying to figure out how I can still use this locked up around London with that saddle.. and also trying to concurrently figure out if my ass/thighs like the saddle or not!
