• Getting there!

    The bars are fine, and actually look ok, but I want something more upright with fashionable sweep. Will spend the next few days on eBay obsessing about that.

    As expected, the slack STA feels a bit mad, but that effect will be lessened when I fit different bars. I will also keep my peepers peeled for an in-line post that won’t look too out of place on this build. The hideous brake lever will also go.

    Beyond that, there’s only aesthetic changes to come – sanding back the cable hanger to silver, sorting the mudguard line, fitting a slightly easier gear.

    Luggage worrying to come though, given how impressively flexible this frame is, I’ll doubtless have to scale back my ambitions.
