My finally finished new/old commuter
Finally finished my parts on hand commuter (only had to buy tires, tubes, and shifter inner cables). It is a 1971ish Steyr/Puch Clubman. . I wanted a bike that was comfy, highly visible with fenders and able to handle wider tires. I have ridden to work twice-44 miles and another 20 or so miles. The bike smoothes out the tar and gravel roads that is about a 1/3 of my commute very well. Still tweaking the setup-may have to upgrade the Sora front derailleur.
