I took the '77 out for a quick 10 mile shakedown this morning after making a few adjustments to fit, and it was quite nice. I like our suggestions about the bar tape and saddle - the brown leather wrap and saddle would look classy! Think I'm going to look for a wider range freewheel as well; were you able to get a 30 tooth rear to work with the rear Cyclone derailleur?
Thank you - and yes, 30 is easy and I am now running a 13-34! But I swapped the original black Cyclone for a black Cyclone GT. Never tried 30 with the original -- I am thinking it wouldn't do it.
