Re:
Since the arrival of the Lotus the SBike has been missing out a bit but received some turquoise bits from RacerX today so I thought I'd have a little play.
Fitted the crankset, pulley wheel and front derailleur . I was originally only going for the two chainrings as I thought it would look better but, 1. The front derailleur fouls the pulley wheel if trying to run two rings and 2. I was wrong, I think it will look better with a large chainring on.
I don't know what everybody else's opinion is?
I then took the orange skateboard truck rubber's I ordered and with a little whittling down with the bench grinder swapped them with the originals in the flexstem
Don't worry I have an alloy top nut for the headset which will be anodised to replace the current one.
