I didn’t go out for a ride today, partly due to the winds & partly due to the fact I couldn’t be arsed.
I’ve been meaning to do a bit of tinkering on the work bike for a while, it needed a new bottom bracket, chain and the headset needed cleaning/re greasing plus the bike needed a general deep clean.
Started to strip down
New bottom bracket fitted
Drivetrain all cleaned, new chain on
Headset was worse than I thought
But cleaned up a treat and I slapped plenty of grease in
All put back together, cleaned and ready for the winter commute
I enjoyed the afternoons fettling, stopped halfway for the wife’s Sunday lunch. Pleased with the bike, took it for a spin around the block and it’s running sweet.
