Breakdown and first cleanup was a breeze.

I find myself sympathetic to the triple-izing; maybe a more fitting crank would make it feel less wrong? This is a keeper, after all.

On to the frame in the coming days. There was a lot of tape and other goo, and that still needs attention. But after that, polishing will make the paint and chrome really pop. I don't even think I'll replace worn out decals.






That's a 12-32, matched with the 52-45-28 crank. Thats more like my modern gravel bike.
