I'm not in any rush to do anything but I need to start thinking whether to spend a lot of money on a 20 year old bike that I love or start saving for a new bike. The only parts that aren't original are the tyres but everything else is worn out. The most urgent problem are the pedals because the right one feels loose like I'm wasting some of my energy on the down stroke. It's all been tightened and oiled etc, so it's not going to get any better.
The chain set would be the next thing to replace. Not sure abound the gears or anything else.
The back wheel has had a buckle attended to by theLBS , after I came off when I skidded on some wet grass trimmings on the path going too fast round a corner, but it's not perfect.
I know I won't be able to replace my ladies frame with racing style set up and proper mudguards.
But I love it and it feels like a part of me !!!! Husband, son and LBS all think it's had it.
