Cheers! No plans to touch the rust as yet, but open to reconsidering - bike will be kept indoors and it’ll have mudguards, so hopefully it won’t get much worse over the next year ish. Never quite sure if it’s best to cover these things up or leave them open to be kept an eye on. I do have some clear Dinitrol kicking around so might just spray a little of that over the patch.
Build wise, it’s going to be quite simple - 2x9, friction bar end shifters, mudguards, and eventually a dynamo. Focus is on using what I already have, and then failing that secondhand stuff wherever sensible - only new parts are the chainset, saddle, couple of bits of finishing kit and then the consumables. I’ll have a rough version of the build together tomorrow so will post pics then
