Bikes: Bianchi Volpe, ANT 3-speed roadster, New Albion Privateer singlespeed, Raleigh One Way singlespeed, Raleigh Professional "retro roadie" rebuild, 198? Fuji(?) franken-5-speed, 1937 Raleigh Tourist, 1952 Raleigh Sports, 1966 Raleigh Sports step-through

Working on rebuilding this old Shogun 300 as something of a go-fast road bike (compared to my others, anyway). Trying to stick to a low budget, and I've found myself being given some nice parts for free, along with finding some good deals on others. Waiting on a few things to come in (and a friend to bring me the 9-speed Ultegra levers and front derailleur he offered me).

The seatpost, saddle, and wheels shown in the last picture are placeholders...I'll be building wheels with black CR18s around a pair of Formula hubs (in the box), and I plan to go with the largest 700C tires that will fit the frame...there's clearance for at least a 42mm tire, I think even with fenders!









I think the only stock parts left on when I'm done will be the frame, fork, and the chainstay cable stop!
