I finally got to put the finishing touches to the old girl out in the sun this afternoon. I wish I had a decent camera/could take a decent photo as mine don't really do it justice. Anyway it's finished for now and I'm pretty pleased with the way it's turned out. It's by no means perfect and if money was no object I'd change a few things but at least it has a new lease of life.

I thought that myself. If you didn't know it had 24" wheels it would look like a decent sized frame with a 65 tooth outer ring

Nice job; love those levers! What are your plans with it? Isn't it a little small?

Yep, too small for me. I bought it to temporarily scratch my Cannondale itch and wanted to make it shine again! My wife is going to give it a go and if she doesn't get on with it then it could end up going back out the door
