Seems to be good, the crankset is a 170mm. I might have a look at getting a 160mm. What do you guys think?

...trying to update old frames is a good way of ending up with an expensive compromise, that doesn't work particularly well...

I can see your point, but so far hasn't cost me much and do have a decent winter hack as it is. Seeing bits and pieces along the way for a cheap price is even better. Until a better frame comes along than this is fine for me.

get 160mm cranks because it looks as is your pedals would scrape the ground on every rotation

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:
![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png)
That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

> Quote text by starting lines with >

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

```

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.

If you upload more than 5 files we will display all attachments as thumbnails.
