Hello again,

I bought a vintage bike recently, and some of the parts are pretty worn- the cassette and rear rim,chainring , The brakes. Without sounding too naive, what do you do when parts get worn out.? This also applies to newer bikes.The B.B is also worn and rusty,-and because there is a stronglight vintage triple crank,here is the diffculty finding a b.b that fits. So what should I do - keep the frame and continue to repalce parts - or replace the bike. Is it accepted to ride a bike till it is unrideable or to change it? I realize that there is a lot of personal choice involved- I held on to my Kona Hahana for 11 years and repalced everything but the frame- Mainly out of stubborness.
I would welcome any feedback .
Thank E.
