Lowered front gearing from 52/42 [who was i kidding] to 44 /35 .
Guards from white to green.
Bar tape to replace.
Happy with outcome.

Looks really nice and I'm sure it's more pleasant to ride than the old 52/42.

I'm bulding up the Mercan frame this week.

Just ordered a new body from amazon, hope it's the right size . The present one is wearing out .
