My 1984 Panasonic CB-630, just back from the builders:



This is a 650b frame, but also kinda primitive in terms of mounting points, so I had a few braze-ons added. I also had the ST reamed out from 26.2 to 26.8 (for a wider variety of potential seatposts), and had the TT cable guides replaced with stops (at some point over the years, the middle guide had snapped off; I decided to look at that as an opportunity to modernize the whole set up).

I'm honored that Dave Levy (TiCycles) chose to do the brazing himself rather than delegate it to an apprentice.

Now to decide on paint...

Eventually I'll get around to rebuilding my RB-2... eventually...

then I can get to replacing the middle chainrings on my Soma & my Trek...

and replacing the outer chainring on my XO-3 and giving it a tune-up.

and then what...?

and then what...?
