Had a few rides on this now, briefly put it on eBay as it’s a tad big for me really, took it off again and decided to do a bit more to it. Converted it to take the Deore LX cantilever brakes instead of the v-brakes, works better with the brake shifters I fitted. Also re-laced the rims on to some Deore LX parallax hubs which I had. Biggest change was to cut and shorten the stem by 25mm or so, this helped make it less of a stretch to the bars for me. Overall it’s looking pretty good now, and it’s doing a good job as my go to winter bike. Think that’s about it for now, might go back on eBay when the weather gets a bit better - see how it goes.
