Or just plan your routes using the good beer guide

That would mean carrying money then

Just got around to swapping the rear mechanism over .

And on initial road test I am now able to select all 7 gears .

A bit more tinkering tonight and i know have a rear brake that makes full contact between the rim and the pads

Also had a look round my stock of chain rings and only found a 52 with the same bcd , i was hoping to find one between 36 & 42 so i could if i wanted to change the single to a double

I have some chainrings under the desk at work, do you want standard campag rings? 144 BCD? The stuff in the garage is in boxes ready for the house move....

That's a nice offer for sure but i am rather hoping the 46 fr and 28 rear will get me up most of my local hills as i would rather keep it on a single ring , so let me check it out on a couple of local hills and get back to you soon .

Just completed longest ride to date on this machine only 35 miles but all very enjoyable just need to do some fine tuning on the the rear mech to stop it chattering but otherwise great ride .

Lifted the seat post an inch and all of a sudden it fly's

Just reaquainted myself with this machine after it having a double crankset installation carried out .

Gone for a slightly newer Campagnolo Mirage unit with a set of Altus levers. All went well just needs a small amount of adjustment and away we go

After reading @Pink Nigel Dean 's post about his Shorter i might just try and find this old and treat her to some miles

Well I finally got around to digging out the Shorter last night and I did a nice 18 miles on it earlier today.
