Well the old WTR as it was and had been for a few years. Used and always enjoyed but in need of some TLC.
As previously mentioned in an earlier thread, I've owned this from new and I think this is something like the 5th or 6th reincarnation now
Anyway...Everything off for a thorough clean:
Some things will be used on other builds, some put back on the WTR and plenty of new bits to add to. I’ve always loved the classic bikes from when I was in my teens but also like new components to work with them.
Once all the bit’s & pieces were gathered together and put on, this is what it looks like now… Hope it doesn’t offend any Mountain Goat purists too much!
Just a couple of bits still to add… Chainstay protector, new Middleburn chainrings and a slimmer set of polished Toplines:
