Re:
So, I got to wash the frameset and oil it this morning before a road ride.
65 miles later, having let the excess oil drain out, I was back to do some more to it.
Took the headset back out, and greased it up well before re-installing it.
Then a bit of elbow grease was required!

T-cutted it. Couldn't see the benefit of metallic polish and being thin as water, I thought I'd use the normal polish. Came up ok I think.

Hard to see from the photos, but it came up really well.
I will just use nail varnish on the worst ofthe paint damage I think.
Also painted a tatty looking Ritchey seatpost, Plastikote used for this.

I want to tidy up the stem too, but waiting to see if I can get a Breezer sticker for it first.
Also got some of the parts together for the build. Ritchey Logic cranks were camera shy!
