Christmas present to my mum was getting her old bike back on the road.
I've left the paintwork tatty but replaced all the cables, swapped the steel wheels for alloy, added the basket, dymano lights, double kickstand and a nurses lock.
I haven't repacked the headset or bottom bracket because seemed ok and it's not a high mileage bike, but I'll check again in the summer when the temperature is a bit more conducive to working outside.
