Yeah, Colonel, as I favor friction shifting it's "neo-retro", updating in the backward direction. It's also a six speed freewheel, did you notice? Bruised, altogether.

I did not respace the rear axle as it is already at 126 mm. Just a nudge inward on each chainstay and everything lines up fine.

Thanks,

J

That crank is too cool. And, man, what a cool paint effect on the fork!
