Hey!

Good afternoon,

I am pleased to have found this forum. A type of door per say. My name is Lou and I grew up on the East Coast USA, but have been living for over 25 years in the EU. I do not road race, do downhill, ride mountain bike or race on tracks. I ride my bike to get around. I wish to think it helps me stay a bit healthier and am also keen to limit car usage. I own two bikes, one of which I recently purchased, i guess it is about 40 years old, for the purpose of taking it apart and doing a rebuild. This has taken on a new dimension and brought with it some questions. 🙂 That is my main reason for joining actually. As a kid I always wanted to strip a bike down and do a re-build, as a kid who is a bit older, I am finally doing it. 😂

Cheers
