So its done, few last minute changes and a couple of niggly things that cropped up, but 99% there.
Went for Charge Spit bars in the end with bontreaga bar tape because i had it and i recon its more comfy than most grips, polished up one of my original Dia-compe levers, not bad for 30 years old, looks like new!
The saddle is the right height for me so not alot of seat bar drop, but it feels good, ended up with 44t and 16t gearing and 165 cranks, few more teeth and shorter crank than i intended, but long story, it feels ok although i've only taken it up the road before i find the rear tyre has popped off the rim, seem i cannot put more than 40 psi in it before this happens? So last thing to sort, but i recon it looks quite nice?
