  • My streamroller passed 50k miles this morning. I’ll continue to ride it until the end of March ish, hopefully see off the worst of the weather.

    It's then off to Argos cycles for a paint job, some proper fender mounts, another bottle cage mount, perhaps a mid fork rack mount. It’s likely to cost more than the frame was originally.

    Exactly what i was going to do.

    It’s likely to cost more than the frame was originally.

    Why i didn't end up doing it. If i had the frame again i would definitely make the investment and i was nowhere near your mileage. I think there's also room to move up the brake bridge a little to allow for bigger tyres under the guards and still be able to use a standard drop caliper if you wanted to.

    Yeah, that's very much on the want list, 35s and fenders would be great, I'll see what they say. Currently I can just about get away with 32s which is alright.
