Thank you. Given that my 1980 Nishiki International was relatively easy, this Mark IV is really my first C&V project. It will be a road bike not a garage queen so I'm not that fussy about original equipment. Function over form.
Oh, I mentioned a special feature: I've stored a can of Yuengling Lager in the BB just in case I get stranded out in the woods and need emergency carbs. Sorry for the focus. The camera has been drinking.
It also keeps me from taking myself TOO seriously. Always a good thing.....
