Thanks for the advice about a separate thread in the bike’s section, I’ll do that when I start building it up.
Sjc, the Pl. X holdsworth rides well, stiffer than my taste as it’s chunky Columbus Spirit with shaped tubes, and a size medium frame while I’m 6’. The tyres sit out at 27mm which eases things a bit. But it’s built up with Campagnolo, which I do like - only Centaur 11 gears and Potenza brakes and cranks, but I like ‘em.
The biggest problem has been finding a position that works after barely riding since 2014, ended up dropping the saddle by 1cm on all my bikes which has minimised the occurrence of saddle sores. No idea what’s happened, I’ve used the same saddle height for ever and I’ve not shrunk. Age? It’s a b*gger.
