Bottom bracket all sussed out and then it turned up...

Spacer was all good, fitted the BB and cranks but nothing setup yet.

i came to run the rear gear cable and the barrel adjuster is missing off the derailleur, i have half a adjuster (the metal screw part but not the spring or outer) no idea where the rest is although i don't think its correct as it only just screws in half a thread or so although it was with all the parts that came off this so not sure...whats a normal size screw barrel adjuster?

So close so might go to a local shop and get one.

Re:

I only found the plastic bit, no spring or bolt. Glad you found one.

Re:

Nice one hank.

What bike is it anyway? If image posting is a faff, just describe it.

Cheers.

Just an old Univega, Flyte 850. Got a similar aged GT to do next.

Re:

Very eye catching. Frame design is similar to my gary fisher.

The forks are good quality, had a blue pair, easy to work on.

Cool, have fun.
