Ready to ride!

So the last few things went on - brakes and cables, bar tape and the saddle. After taking two weeks to find the time, it was all done in no time at all today. So I took a quick spin around the streets and into the park.




















First impression? It's great - a super smooth ride and almost silent as you churn along. The simplicity of the drivetrain is really noticeable in its lack of drag and whine.

So what now? Well, to ride it lots, I suppose - have to put brackets on for lights and maybe a computer too, though it seems a shame to clutter up the bars with all that. Then I have to start looking for the next project...
