Finally feeling a bit of love for the bikes again, it's been a while...
Fannied about with Gazz's Hardrock, put some air in the tyres, sorted the front brake cable routing, put the grips all the way on (!) and moved levers/shifters inboard, moved front der up to stop it interfering with the weirdy biopace type big ring. Unfortunately I'm now eyeing it and my spares box and thinking about what could be upgraded :shock: Slippery slope, back in the basement with you, you naughty temptress!
Stripped paint off an old seat post and polished it up in readiness for the Pipedream. Started to remove the excess metal from the Rockhopper's dropouts, will need some decent drill bits to finish it off though. Also tried to straighten out the Rockhopper's frame (noticed it's bent at the back, seatstays-rim spacing is way off, although chainstay-rim looks OK).
