Just a thought - but I have a spare set of the Vector 2 logo decals for the stem (I got an set from Gil M for my Pro Flex 856 but it's on a newer fork without the stem) - I can see you're keeping the paint how it is, but if you'd like these posted to you gratis shoot me a pm...

That is super kind of you thank you! The frame is kinda beat up but I’m planning something else which may involve the same direct mount stem on a slightly better condition bike so if you can spare them I shall gratefully receive them.

Hopefully that’s John Grafton from Colorado and not John Grafton from Carlisle!
BTW I have no idea where the real John Grafton is from! Love his comment, how cool is that!
Well done! I feel awful pointing it out after you've been wrestling with the post, but the Moby is back to front.
Text and graduations to the front. Probably "Easton" to the rear.
The clevis pin inserts from the front, with the bolt at the back.
Just saying..

i have to say i think this is a really great project . . . but . . .
please fit the top chainring correctly, the other 2 are aligned correctly with the timing mark in line with the crank arm but the top chainring is not aligned with the crank arm, the timing pin facing out is supposed to sit behind the crank arm, this is for gear shift timing mark but also so that if the chain goes over the top of the chainring then the chain shouldn't get caught behind the back of the crank arm.
sorry to be a picky git!

Many thanks indeed. The lord knows I have tried this but the large ring doesn’t seem to go under the crank arm as stud/guide (?) collides with it.i have to say i think this is a really great project . . . but . . .

Besides, this is Caz’s ring on Caz’s crank and it appears she rode it this way so I’m not going to change it. I hope that makes sense.

hmm . . . odd. if the back of the crank arm has a stud to combat chain drop, then the timing pin should be removed from the chianring and then fitted behind the crank arm, i understand the "she rode it like that" but that would have been a mechaincs choice, and arguably wrong choice!
sorry though, i couldn't help but notice it, saw this at the malverns on every other bike last year, i've innadvertantly started noticing it more!
