Roberts tri athlete

The bottle holder was a pita, bolt heads were some imperial size, probably 5/16th or some such. Lucky I have an Allen key that size used for Bullseye cranks! So it's starting to look like a bike now

Its pretty much done for now

Will feed the saddle back to health and give it a cleAn but not too much else

Took her for a spin but boy the front is low

Will tilt the bars up, new bar tape, clean the wheels and maybe get some 25 Amber walls on it

Don't think it will replace my 11 speed Orbea endurance for weekend trips out!

Love a compact chainset!

Maybe keep an eye out for some DA brakes, non aero so I can sneak it in to L'eroica

 

[xxnick1975]

Any hints on setting up front mech braze on style.

Cage is fouling chainset when in big ring?

Re:

I like the look of that. I think conventionally the bars would be tilted so the ends point a bit further down, so that'd bring the hoods up a bit.

Does it mean the tyres are protected?
