Finished! Mr Ox’s Dave Yates Vulcan

[MR OX]

Polishing & paint touch ups for starters

 

[MR OX]

Happy with today’s progress, coming along nicely

 

[Canuckbiker]

Wow! Lovely frameset and nice set of wheels

Signing in for updates

 

[MR OX]

I can’t make my mind up

I can’t make my mind up

Black rings for me

 

[Mace4130]

Black rings would look better on the bike, but I love those bronze ones!

 

[MR OX]

Cranks fitted, went for black rings. Front & rear mechs serviced & fitted, thumbies & brake levers dusted off. Handlebars chosen & fitted.
Need to decide on grips, OG small flange Odi mushrooms or Tioga Bio grips?
Sorry about the lack of pictures, wanted to get in for the Wimbledon men's final!

 

[MR OX]

Bit more done today, canti’s stripped & cleaned up, bars, thumbies, levers, grips & gear cables run, saddle fitted to tattier of the seatposts (I couldn’t bring myself to cut the nicer one down) Just a chain & brake cables & we can have a test ride

 

[raidan73]

That's lovely. Kudos on the matching saddle

 

[MR OX]

Finally finished off, took it for a quick shake down just now & am absolutely loving it!
