El Diablo,
I hadn't even considered using a wide chain/fewer gears. Will definitely look into that.
The general idea with this is to produce a quick bike that we can use on long rides and perhaps give TT or racing a go, just to get a taste.
I think SJS and Edwardes in Camberwell are going get pretty well acquainted with this bike over the next month or so.
Horatio,
I'll ask Tom to measure up when he gets home. The drum brake may or may not be seized, we're going to open it up and take a look at some point. Otherwise the wheel's in a good condition.
