Sort of a current project. I'm converting my current "winter" all rounder into a TT steed for some light hearted racing action.
Here it is in the current guise:
Top tube sticker for inspiration:
Some of the bits for the conversion:
Old skool 7 speed screw on block and down tube shifters. Wheels weigh a tonne but looking forward to putting some of the full carbon boys to the sword 8-)
Has required a bit of thought regards compatibility: 7 speed block, 8 speed rear mech, 10 speed ring will all work with an 8 speed chain I'm told.
Ned has been such a great buy for me. Since I picked him up a couple of years ago he's been a training TT bike, then a singlespeed TT bike, then the winter road bike and now this latest creation. It's ridden brilliantly in every set up. Just hope this works out ok. Updates to follow as it progresses. Thanks for looking.
