Marin is nearing completion. The mudguards are on now. Rear is fine, I had to drill the underside of the bridge but luckily I had a short countersunk m4 that works a treat. Front needs to be cut to clear the underside of the fork which is slightly annoying but ah well. It just won't go high enough. I also need to make a new bracket for the cheap eBay rack as when I slowly bent the one supplied to make it fit you can see it starting to crack.
Brakes are cabled up and pads fitted. Also have a new set of pedals installed. Went with a set of v6s as a stop gap mainly as they were cheap and I like the colour. Bearings are dreadful in them though.
Also had some grommets in my supplies that ace as a perfect top cap. Just waiting on my clamps for the cable routing and a few tweaks and it should all be done then.
