It's my 1st SS, and I want the flexibility at the moment to change ratios. Maybe if and when I find a ratio that suits me and the riding I do on it, I'll ditch it. |

So I'm trying anything & everything to get back up to speed. I got my shiny new R2.5 frameset on Friday. It's is waiting to be ridden like a hot lass on heat up hills for trucks sake!! :MAD: (well I have to build it up yet... But that's not the point!:P) |

ooh. gratuitous pic opportunities.. Can't let this slip without including the new pride & joy I've added to the stable: (http://groups.msn.com/gumbercules197...oto&PhotoID=15) - The completed hard-rubbish-resurrected ss townie, cobbled together from the remains of about 4 nature-strip outcasts. Took its first shop-run yesterday for tofu and spring onions, and I was very pleased with how its come together, not to mention delighted at my first taste of ss since childhood. Something remarkably 'freeing' about it all... Also couldn't resist not including the picture of my new 'apprentice'. Good to get them paying their way early! http://groups.msn.com/gumbercules197...oto&PhotoID=16 (Also provides a sneak peek of the 'angry-ram' daily commuter, which is what you'll see me on most days) -- eddiec |

I'll see your Raleigh and raise it with mine.
I've posted it before, but may as well include it in this thread http://www.flickr.com/photos/8594220...n/photostream/ What was going to be a simple 'buy a cheap quando hub from Dutchy, lace it to the original rim and call it done' turned into 'replace everything except the frame/fork, headset, bars & brake, with new/ebay parts, learn how to build wheels and (most importantly) ride it exclusively, neglecting bikes with such frivolous things as derailleurs, gears and freewheels' 450km on it so far and I feel no desire to ride geared/unfixed anymore. Have just geared up from 70 to 74" (42-16 to 44-16) and can still get up the hills I have to and there's a 46t waiting in the wings. Set a new top speed/cadence yesterday too, 54km/hr at 154rpm on a false flat, my pedals were eggbeaters in more ways than one. After my first wheelbuilding success I'm now going to relace the original front rim/hub with new spokes so I have a spare wheel that also matches the brake reach nicely. It's amazing what some time spent with progressively finer silicon carbide paper and metal polish can do for 31 year old alloy rims and hubs, they look like they're chromed now. Andrew.
