Still running around on this old beast and it's been through a couple of iterations. Spent more time today working on a Miyata 312 but while digging into my stash for parts for it I found some two sided MB type pedals I forgot I had. Then later I found some 700 x 32 Cyclocross tires. So now the Orbea has been transformed into an even more capable gravel type bike. Hard to fathom one of these was racing in the grand tours of the mid 80's with all the tire clearance it has. Oh and I also found some new hoods for this and then promptly misplaced them before getting to the garage with them I still don't know what the heck I did with them after I grabbed them out of the parts cabinet. Dang ol' brain!

Anyway a pic of the bike as I set it up today and a couple showing the clearance..


Today's setup, test coming soon.

Rear clearance, plenty around the chainstays too.

Front is good too.
