before I get loads of abuse this is just a trial !
I had planned to restore this lava dome to near catalogue condition as over got all the original parts except for wheels and tyres, but before I start I've decided to try it out with modern gear on it.
Initial thoughts are its a bit slack with 100mm forks, although I think the head angle will bed ok with a 90mm stem. I think itll be the slackened seat angle that might spoil the ride though . I can drop the forks to 80mm to try mitigating three effects .
I can't be the first to try this though so any comments
