She’s pretty much done (for now) - Caroline Alexander’s Klein “Pulse” - Attitude by a different name? Racing History, no less.

Amazing job
I'd suggest more splay on the canti arms - brakes weren't much good in those days, you needed as much leverage as possible!

Worth a try but they feel alright and I don’t intend to ride it.

Great job! Great bike! Great pesentation!

I'm just a little bit irritated about the brake adjustment. They should be symmetrical left to right?

Not worth getting irritated about to be honest but just for you here are photos which hopefully will ease your irritation…

Ahh. Much better.

After a 6 hour round trip for a low rise stem for this build, I can now say that (barring some ongoing work) she’s pretty much done.

I’ll keep looking for an unbroken left crank (even JG can’t spare one so my chances are slim) and although the seatpost turns i want to get it out and clean the seat tube and get the replacement post in. Zip locks are annoying. But I’m not downing tools on it just yet.

That being said, she’s pretty good and a nice ride to boot.

Thanks all for tuning in.
