Neo retro Bobbin Scout - with free hipster beard

[legrandefromage]

It arrived this morning. Very nice. Very shiny.

Free half decent tool kit and enough Haribo to keep me high for the day

It hasnt been allowed to leave the sitting room yet. It'll shiver if it goes outside.

Too shiny.

Full Sunrace R80 drivetrain. Might move the shifters to the bar ends. The left hand shifter has some nice clicks like some old Suntour. Shifting itself is nice and precise with a loud 'clack' from the lever, again like shifters of old. Some Shimano stuff got a bit too quiet or worn out for me.

The Tektro levers have a quick release mechanism and are very sturdy. The whole bike is a glory to the Taiwanese cycle industry - cheap, cheerful and it works.
