And some of us more than others (me, I mean me). 6 speed is pretty "robust" suspect you'll not need to change the cassette (freewheel). 2 Links is close enough to an inch different, assuming it was right before, you should just about get away with it. If its to long a chain splitter is cheap...

Do you use your boat through the winter or is it left at anchor? Just kidding. Bikes a bike, enjoy.

I've had that sat in a corrupted file for at leat 15 years. It's hilarious.

Converted ice-cream bike. Might not look it from the pics, but pretty solid old thing.

Get AA cover. Drive 2 miles from house so it doesn't look dodgy. Ring for recovery. Say you were on way back for MOT. 🤪 Or Ring Dave.

stop playing in mirrors, get a chain on it and get out there already. all this setup is great, but you sound to be pretty close to where you need to be, everything else is tweaks once you are riding it. :P

these were sold by sports direct. I remember wanting the forks for a cafe racer build. they were awful as you can imagine. leave it where it is, it isn't worth 50 quid.
