    Wheels, saddle and pedals gone in the post this afternoon.

    10 speed cassette on the wheel, should be fine.

    Hi all!

    The first test spin completed successfuly.

    Thanks to Wildly Boating for wheels pedals and saddle with handlebar tape. Green and blue on black bike :)

    Cantilever brakes were changed to v-brales (less parts and easier to adjust). It would be great to fit calliper breaks in front. All new brake pads.

    Front fork - bearings replaced and fork painted by 3 in 1 paint from lidl/aldi. Paint requires 2-3 weeks to settle... Black on black is good. Railings of the saddle refreshed with 3in1 white paint .... 3 days and still soft paint.

    Cables were replaced except the back brake cable ... As black outter line finished. Do have a white only ))) Ordered a new one - hopefully it will arrive before the bike will go to Galway.


    New 8 speed cassette, spacer and chain.

    It would be great to replace front sprocket set .... Extremely expensive exercise.

    Despite the owfull look of the shifters and derauliers everything is working as it should.

    New black handle bar tape looks great.

    Found a great hint - it is great to use a colour restorer for cars perfectly cleans the frame!
