Took it out on its maiden voyage today. Man it’s hard to stay seated when your so used to standing. Shifting was flawless. Front brake squeaked. Seatpost needs a shim. New pedals will take some time getting used to. I had 1 tip over. Rear end is amazing, what bumps. Forks seem a bit stiff but...

Called stud & bearing mount. Green bottle

I have one but this one won't work with a ring in the 44 tooth range. That or I don’t know how to adjust it so it does work.

All the boutique stuff is finicky. I threw away more brakes than I can remember and now sellers want silly $$ for the look. I have a pair of Pauls that are extremely powerful if not just a bit touchy.

Psssssst. 26 lbs not even trying.

And I thought Britan was all asphalt and buildings. Beautiful countryside you got there folks. Enjoy.

I replaced the barrel adjusters with xt units.

Thumbies on. There's one on the other side also.

Thumbies mounted.

Anodized purple motolites instead of these. 1.9 barely fits.

Takes a cable years to wander and its the housing that compressed not the cable that stretches. I’ll take 90’s bike parts any day. My wife has a new carbon mtn bike and its ugly if that matters. A bit off topic sorry.

You guys and flouresents.

So I take it my 6061 frames safe?

Sanded the Renthal sineage off the bars.

Talking brakes, these will go on the Catamount.
