I did the same with some 3M SOLAS strips bought from an eBay retailer. I cut a bunch of squares and put them onto the rim between the spokes, figuring I'd get a little more reflection from headlights directly in front or behind me, as opposed to perpendicular.

My latest Bicycle...
Raleigh Portage Touring bike. Everything is original except the foam handlebar tape. I am going to add a 48cm noodle bar, and a higher nitto stem. The Portage came stock with Raleigh branded 650b sized wheels and tires.. http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3390/...f41d5007_b.jpg http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3396/...6cb3432c_b.jpg more photos here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/2744773...7618857446878/ |
one caveat: get rid of that gross rear plastic spoke guard (then it's nirvana)

I put parts together myself. This is a start point, Salsa LaCruz frame and paint stripper. |

Been riding for less than a month to campus but here it is. not the first bike that would get stolen from the racks around here. Just put the fenders on.

I've been commuting with a '05 trek 4300 with road tires, great bike, but just received this vintage bike (free!!!), hoping to commute with it. The trek being to upright for the 10 mile each way commute. Though I will be keeping it.
I have spent about 5 hrs and $55 on new tires and brake pads. The ones on it were factory, from the '70s, super hard rubber from the age. This is the first road bike I have every owned, and its a much rougher ride then the trek, but much quicker. http://i24.photobucket.com/albums/c2...s/P6030255.jpg http://i24.photobucket.com/albums/c2...s/P6040258.jpg http://i24.photobucket.com/albums/c2...s/P6040262.jpg http://i24.photobucket.com/albums/c2...s/P6040260.jpg http://i24.photobucket.com/albums/c2...s/P6040256.jpg |
