today I went to the workshop and changed the frameset, I have a new everyday bike.
I hope it will fit me.



then I started repairing tape recorders

 

[widowmaker]

Totally cleared the loft, garage, lean-to, shed and summerhouse of bikes and parts. Several trip runs later, this is all I have left

Palisades Trail to build into a tourer and a plastic tub of spares.

Stripped my Timberline down to a frame. Cleaned and polished.

Got a sudden hankering for a Quality Street Noisette triangle.

Always glad to see a symmetrical build.
I've heard all the arguments for trailing inside right outside left but it's "expertise signalling".
They can make a slightly stronger argument on the back, but it's still pretty feeble.

Finally built my trail/gravel/tarmac hack…. More photos in post 98 readers bikes.

Think it’s a 99 or 00 British frame as it’s 531st and 27.0 seatpost and the Czech ones went to 27.2 by info I can see.

So Dawes galaxy, Thomson elite seatpost, brooks c67 saddle, bontrager ti-tec bar, gripshift xray, ergo gr3 grips, XT rear dealer, XT 8 speed cassette, dia-comps brake levers, fir sc200 rims, hope ti-light hubs, WNT pedals. Brakes, cranks and front derailleur as came with frame.

New tyres and added some bits I dug out…. Titanium seatpost, deda quill to threadless adapter and old specialized titanium stem to go with bontrager to-tec bar already on bike.
