Thanks for kind the kind words on my build. I am, at present, one who it seems cannot leave a set up as it is. I really just started to do more bike maintenance myself about 1 1/2 years ago. I am still in a learning curve and watch videos and ask questions on BF and my LBS. To be honest, I think my Ochsner build came out really nice. When I started the project I was looking to do it on the low end of dollars and keep it close to what it was like before. Once I got it torn down and stripped to bare metal, I decided on powder coating. When putting it back together I decided to put some more cash into it to make look good and be a bit more up to date functionally. I thought if it turned out well it would boost my confidence and desire to learn more. It has become my favorite bike to ride again. Physically, I have chronic spinal and shoulder issues, including 5 surgeries, 4 on the spine at lumbar and cervical areas. I am quite happy to be able to ride a road bike. That is the kind of riding I really get a kick out of. This bike is still rewarding 27 years after purchasing it new in 1992.
