Will do 👍
CP thread coming when i have a plan.
Currently thinking silver errthing, but on the other hand black parts would make the frame pop.
Main Challenge is fork stud spacing at about 55mm. Any experience with cantis on narrow posts? BR cx50 could perhaps work with some washer play/filing

Cheers guys! Found it in the 86 catalogue.
Deep cleaned, applied framesaver, removed rust, covered chips with clear nail polish, polished and waxed the frame. Looking good with the odd chip here and there.

I have picked up this cross trophy and it should from 80-85, Is there any catalogue to reference?
Also meausured the seattube ID as 27,2 even though it should be plain gauge.
Any gazelle wisdom would be greatly appreciated

Best of All the ancient Mavic hoops took an 11 speed cassette and with 2 rounds of tape I could set them up tubeless with just a track pump.
In the future i will add mudgaurds and perhaps turn it ss

Sorry for the lack of updates. Life has been a bit hectic and I have'nt been round here much. Bike turned out okay tough. Currently it is my townie/commutter/bit of shopping and so on bike. Max clearance in the rear is 31c tyres, so I rather grab the MTB for offroading. Tried riding some Gravel stuff but the frameset is too much CX geo and clearances to make it wortwhile.
It was my first complete build and i really enjoyed it! A Lot more fun than buying any complete otp bike and i learned a ton.

Agree with All the points made. To be clear i purchased the part on the lower photo as waterproofing was my Main concern as well. I think Garmin fucked the button design up as it seems to be a Common problem. Hope to fix it Up for good as the unit is working flawlessly.
Any interest in a write Up on how to do the repair when i get to it?
