I’m not *too* fussed about the weight on mine. I may have already said above that I have a reverb and mudguards, some magura hydraulics to replace the sketchy original cable brakes and I’ve gone 10 speed – I just need to get rid of the front mech and get a chain guide on there, now.
I changed the front tyre for a floater, and have just taken delivery of a Nate, which will go on the front, and I’ll swap the floater to the back.
The reverb hose currently is cable tied to the top tube. Not sure its long enough to go down the down tube when the front mech comes off, but replacing the hose isn’t hideous. Not unhappy where it is, though.
Thing is, I’m having too much fun riding it, to do some of these things. The reverb needs a service, I have everything here to do it, and stop the rocking/creaking, but I’d rather just ride it in the time I have available, rather than fix it up! 😆
