So where to go from there?
First thing is to have a good rootle in the cupboards. Ive not got a lot of kit left after 18 months of getting rid of stuff following a household downsize. But I kept some stuff I either loved or thought i might use.
Then a auspicious chance popped up and provided me with an xtr m900 chainset.....needed a "clean" (see seperate thread), but perfect, cheers bob your a star. One quick clean up later......and on it goes with a set of zephyr chainrings. That's a start and quite a good one as I've got some other xtr bits in the box......including then i find.....another chainset.....
Front and rear mechs came off a mates touring bike some many moons ago, brakes i think came off ebay when they were still £30 a set of 4 (arrrr ummmmm remember those days.....ummmm). All wanted a quick " clean" but thats half the fun for me...I love a restoration job......don't know why i retired really!
So im well on my way
