Maruishi Roadace Build Update
I have posted about this bike many times in various threads since last October. I'm finally putting it together, and she looks lovely. People have asked for updates, and I'm just gonna post my progress here.
I stripped the frame and sanded it (by hand) to mitigate some minor rust and pitting. Painted with several coats of rust reformer, primer, and satin black on the frame, gloss black fork. Salvaged Vintage Schwinn drop bars with Tektro Aero hoods. RS10 wheelset with a Serfas Tuono 32 on the rear and Gatorskin 25 up front, 8 speed cassette modified for 7 speed 12-28, headset rebuilt and Nashbar FS1 saddle installed.
