Thanks for the tips regards the rear mech. I'm not the most mechanically minded, but I know a man who is and if it's possible to remedy then he will. I'll point him in the direction of your tips if/when he comes to look at it.
All that said, it's with much sadness that I'm going to have to sell "Ned". I'll post a proper ad in the classifieds, but I did my first ride on him this week (a club 10) and it's clear to me that my TTing days are over. As previously mentioned I was pretty unwell last year and have been on the mend since. I'm now riding at moderate pace and intensity for leisure rides, but the intensity of a TT (even a club event) was too much and it just felt wrong to be putting myself through that intensity after my illness.
Shame as I thought it might be a bit of light hearted fun to do some racing on Ned, but in reality I think I need to be honest with myself and give it a swerve. No point making myself ill again. So it's up for grabs. I've really enjoyed the project, but much as I'd like to have him hanging on the wall, I can't really afford to have a bike that I'm not going to use.
Happy to sell whole or split if there's enough interest in the bits. PM me if interested. Thanks.
