[#12629249]

Picked up a 10 year old almost unused Kona Unit a few weeks back, and after replacing everything but the frame and seat it finally had it's first day out yesterday

It was beautiful before I installed some guards and rode it as intended

Before

Still before

After

Nice.

Surfacing on your driveway could do with a bit of attention.

Thanks 🙂 They are On One Mike's, flipped. Like a Mary bar, but a little more swept back

As for the driveway, what's annoying me more is that I didn't line up the cranks with the chainstay

Personally, I tend (when I remember) to line my cranks horizontally. So, from that point of view, pic 2 is fine. But, pedals need to line up with cranks. And your valves are a bit jauntily past 12 o'clock. 9/10 for bike. 6/10 for photo composition!
