Update here. Bikes off being further unbuggered. it’s a shame because the thing looks absolutely mint but truthfully we’ve had to rebuild the whole bastard thing. However… it should be right as rain once it’s back. And atleast everything’s serviced, rebuilt and refreshed now. Whole bikes been apart and redone so it better be! Just a lot of work to do for me as I’ve got some mental hurdles to sort out and a bit nervous to go riding again (if I ever actually get this thing out !).
Finally, after a very long layup (4 years since I last raced) and 2 years since I last rode at all - I got back on my new (ish) steed last night. had a cracking time and went surprisingly well, A LOT better than I had imagined I really needed it after ending my ‘racing career’ a bit mentally broken. Needless to say I’ve woken up sore this morning ! Bike’s been down to the frame twice in my ownership and given me a good bit of grief but pleased to report it’s great now. Really giving me lots of feedback and telling me where to go with it. One thing I would say, don’t buy diamond rearsets. They’re absolutely shit.
@Advikaz Did you basically drop a bollock when you stopped racing as the pictures above look like Group 1 shots?
