So STAGE 1 (single-speed) complete
Everything heavy or superfluous has been striped off and binned.
I have replaced the pedals, front wheel, seatpost and saddle
The orginal chainring was the cheapest most 'orrible thing
I have ever seen on a bike
So I fitted one from some middleburn cranks I had lying about
Now the weight is down to around 10 kg
Still getting used to how this bike 'feels'
it doesn't ride like any other bike I have ever ridden
Looking forward to doing a little bit of 'shopping'
