Dink around time in the garage….
Took off the Nitto drop bars and installed some north roads, basket and SunTour XC pedals.
The French Nervar 46/30 cranks are kinda a wart but they totally work fine.

I will happily trade you a racer boy 42/52 Solida for that. It's cotterless. If you want cottered just ask. But they would be 46/51.
