This, after I built up an alloy front wheel for better braking, repacked the bottom bracket and headset with new balls, tuned it and tweaked it and devised a front basket setup strong enough to carry her considerable load of camera equipment on those creamy new Schwalbe tires. All for naught.



So I traded it for a Raysport 531 Turismo frame, and I'm building that into the ultimate British-style Light Roadster. She's saving for a car...
