So, fitting the Challenge Strada Bianchi tyres was a proper palaver.
It then turned out that with guards, I didn’t have the clearance for 36’s, so I ended up swapping wheels with my Bob Jackson, which does.
Guards were pretty easy, but getting new gear cables into the Veloce levers involved a great deal of faff.
Will do the rack next week - it involves drilling the guards, so needs to be done with care.
Am also waiting for Fresh Tripe to get the Velo Orange front rack I want in stock.
Happy with progress so far:
