I would definitely recommend Humbrol or other modelling paint rather than Halfords
Sussex Modelling Shop it is then, and thank you very much for the offer of help, that really means a lot
i did the ear/turn test this afternoon, and it wasn't totally silent, but it did seem very smooth. :?
I've had another minor set back with the front cogs and they seem fairly knackered. I'm not sure which eyes i was using when i looked at them the first and second times, but it was obviously the wrong ones..
I'm going to re-fit them anyway and see what happens.
also, i bashed the headset about today but it's claiming squatters rights in the frame and won't budge :evil:
Good things that happened today..
- I got a part worn chain and corresponding 8 speed XT cassette (very pleased about that, thank you Steve!)
- rojo sent me a headset
- Missing bits should be collected tomorrow after a quick phonecall this afternoon.
- a very tidy Kona top arrived for the missus from Rotwild, ta mate (this may not be so good, she is keeping a very close eye on this bike)
did some pics..
cranks before
cranks after
not amazing, but not bad for a couple hours work
