Building up a beater/cx bike i can lock up without bricking it too much. Its an old BSA prima frame, I used to ride it as a conversion sprayed horrible blue. I stripped it down and polished the forks and half polished the frame, finished with an acrylic clearcoat. Wheels are shimano tiagra wheelset, 8 speed 11-28, with 32c schwalbe marathon plus on the front and 32c schwalbe landcruiser on the back. Tange BB with sugino xd-2 touring cranks and 46t single chainring. Old singapore made sis rear mech, made for 6 speed but shifts fine though all 8 gears. Old Sunrace downtube shifter. Stock headset ,stem and bars from the bsa, shimano exage slr aero levers, tektro r530 deep drop brakes. tressorex cotton tape. Shimano single sided platform/spd pedals. stock seat and post.
Basically made up from parts i had but rides nicely and very good for dirt paths and woods. needs tidying up still.
