Been lurking on this forum for a year or so but ended up making an account a few months ago as I started getting into bikes again!
The first bike I worked on was a Dolan Pre Cursa that I got when I was 16 about 10 years ago (which I still have, and will hopefully appear in this thread at some point!), but I'll start off with a brown early 80s Dawes Galaxy frameset I bought from @sacredhart to use as a bit of an all round/all season bike.
Made a couple of changes - I swapped out the downtube shifters for some cable stops as I wanted STI/Indexed shifting and added a cable guide under the BB as Galaxy's don't have them. This makes cabling easier. Currently the cable stop is Epoxy'd in place. Will drill and tap at some point.
