Cheers! Feeling pretty chuffed how it’s come out given the tight budget I was on.
Still to do:
- Swap tyres out for better/matching 23/25 pair (got some cheap black Paselas on order)
- Get touch up paint from Argos
- Ride to Bath and back along the railway path on a quiet morning - there’s a stretch of smoooooth tarmac along the railway line I like to zoom on, so will be good to see how this flies
- Choose a name - preferably masc, must be dumb.
- Test out hashtag bikepacking mode - Carradice Super C on the back (the big one - may need a Bagman), lil Restrap frame bag, tent strapped to handlebars) in preparation for a summer end-to-end
- Failing that, test fitting a rack
- Try not to slip out on the ice doom that the lovely Somerset lanes are about to become, and to have fun in the meantime
- Eventually replace the slightly dying front wheel - TB14 same as the rear, and either matching 105 hub or a SON if I can find the money for it
- Swap tyres out for better/matching 23/25 pair (got some cheap black Paselas on order)
