• Sorted. Steerer cut and filed to fit, spacers and stem on and star nut (carefully) knocked in and tightened.
    Been trying out the cable routing for gears but still have a strange aversion to them. I think i have single speed obsession or something. My guess is the next picture i put up will be a single speed set up.
    The ride height seems fine with the 50mm of spacers in, the proof will be in a long(ish) ride. I have put the system ex seatpost in and stuck the selle san marco saddle from the old Schwinn on. Should be nice and comfy.
    Anyone any thoughts on the idea of SS touring, considering we don't have that many epic hills in these parts.
