Dirt Disciple
Spent an hour or so in the garage. Fitted the bottom bracket. Looked at the sorry looking seat post and thought it could do with a good clean up. Indeed some T cut and a polishing tool in the drill made it look like new again. I have to say it feels heavy though.
Now the question that is going to mare me out as a heretic. The original stem. the bolts are corroded and there are nasty scrapes to be seen. I am not sure they will polish out. The other thing is the bars are way too narrow for comfortable riding if truth be told. Nasty narrow red Scott things. Can't believe I was sold them in fact. trades description act would surely be effective if i had the receipt and could remember where i bought them.
Cant see any suitable bars for sale (narrow diameter things) so do i get a new stem and bars? Feel free throw throw abuse/advise/new bars as you see fit.
