winter boredom build

You don't see may older lugged Giant bikes around but I found this one in great shape for $30 on C/L and couldn't resist.
I stripped her down, cleaned her up, replaced the heavy cranks with some 600's and a sealed BB, swapped the steel bars with some Nittos and found a home for a set of NOS suntour Barcons. Finished it off with some yellow to white fade tape and some yellow(ish) bottle cages that go perfectly and MKS pedals. Everything from the parts bin except for cables and chain.
Nothing special, but now its a pretty nice rider and the build was a good alternative to the winter boredom.
