It was the 1980's... Emmelle Dolomite 'King Ace' cro-mo

Due to bonkers influx of bicycle 'stuff', I've been a bit lax in getting things done.

I fitted some 7spd wheels for the moment and a Deore mech / DNP 7spd thumies to replace the Z model mech and shifters.

Very short top tube!

Shifts like shit of a shovel!

U-brakes are brill!

It has puncture already!!

Re:

Love the look of this, there is something about this style of set up that is just super rideable!

I recently put some old riser bars like those on my cannondale (swapped from quite narrow flats) and it just feels so much more planted and FUN now, on road and off!
 
Re:

Much nicer condition than the one I currently have in the work stand... Scabby blue paint and much surface rust! By rights it should be going to scrap, but I have a soft spot for lost causes so I'm going to paint it :)
