That looks a bit racy. Any idea what year it is?

Is it actually a 'professional', I thought they had wrap-around seat stays?

A bit of work tonight and we have some down tube gear levers fitted and cabled up and they even select a few gears as well .

Also replaced the brake pads and started on the brake cables , hopefully will be up early am 2moro to finish the brakes off and have another trundle around the block to see what is going on gear wise .

Well gears work to a degree just a bit of fine tuning required , front brake works now just the rear to sort either a sticky lever or caliper edging towards a bent/sticking lever blade . Also swapped stem and bars over for a shorter reach set might not a bit shorter stem but it feels better .

Two miles this morning nice and sprightly so will see .

A bit more tinkering tonight and the rear brake is fully functional at last , so treated myself a spin up to the top of the mad mile and back .

These Shimano Aero levers work well and are in easy reach

The paintwork has a nice shine on it where i have t cut and polished it on the down and top tube .

The Mavic rear mech doesnt like the 28 tooth rear sprocket much so need to swap the mech over
