Starting to look like something!



Did some touch-up enamel over the bad rust spots and it looks terrible. It might have been cooler to just spray the spots with some rattle can primer. Never too late for spray paint! I thought I could use the clamp style NR downtube shifters from my International, but realized you have to destroy them to do that. I hate DT shifters anyway! I had some adapters and some power-ratchets, so that’s what it gets! The brakes had rock-hard Scott Mathauser pads and holders, but I had some Kool Stops, so those will do for now. Maybe I’ll bend the fourth tab off the aluminum holders and give it a go? I had some Pasella 28s and they fit with room to spare.
