Almost passed on the bike, it's been in a front end (rippled downtube/Cracked paint), tracked straight and grabbed it for the price of the the thick slick tires. Wheels were shot, and the 700x25c tires rubbed. Decided to go 650x38 (CdV tires) - there is still clearance for 42's. It's my new to me commuter/hardpack ride. May try to snag a new Sora or Tiagra group to throw on. So far she's smooth and still faster than me!
Is this spot the difference?
I notice 8 -
Bar tape
Wheels / tyres
Red thing
Chain on large ring
Brake levers
Gear levers in different position
Pedal arms in different position
Dork disc removed
