So its all done! Had a 15 minute ride in the terrential rain last night at my parents house, was too heavy/i was too wet to get a picture before leaving it at my parents
We will be reunited in 2 weeks when it comes to meet me in London!
First things, got dam stopping is hard aha, front brake helps a lot though, got thrown off the front trying to emergency stop without the front brake. Typical. Foot retention is what i'll be buying ASAP. First 5 minutes my chain was skipping, but after oiling the chain it did it once more and hasn't done it in the rest of the 20 minutes, so hopefully thats solved that...
All in all Its so nice! will need to change the ratio at some point 48x16 = goodbye cheap tyres even faster than they would do anyway
