The washing machine works better than the dishwasher imo.

Chainrings, chains, cassettes, dirty tyres (folding only obvs) chuck in a couple of armloads of crap from the laundry bin, hot wash, loads of detergent.
What could possible be wrong with that?

The 100mm stem is too long for me, I don't like suicide levers because I'm not comfortable on the hoods and steel handlebars FFS. On a bike that is used as a substitute barbell weight in a power lifting competition.
So I dive into the box of shite that most of us have. I have a 22.00mm steerer 80mm SR stem, matching bar's and some rather nice Dia Compe levers, done.
So far we have this.

I'd ditch the stand. Save a kilo or two.

That has a lot more potential than I imagined. I really like that crankset, are you sure you don't want to swap that?

I think it adds something to the general clunkiness, don't you?

I'm sure after the time it took to clean the ****ing thing.

Look at the top tube, Jo thinks the spidering is pretty in fact there's all sorts of blemishes everywhere, take your pick
