V brake bosses Trimmed off and cleaned up
The rather level top tube has been annoying me since I put the frame together. I wished it had more slope like the moosegoose. I also wasn't happy with my seat tube to bb joint, or the seat post clamp arrangement.
So chop chop MF
Lowered the top tube. Leaned the seat stays down, and put the seat tube back in. Much happier with it now. Thankfully didn't get much blow through with the welds at the top of the seat post. A clean up with the grinding stone soon had the seat post dropping back in.
Wire brushed all the welds to get them nice and clean, and sanded the entire frame. Then added putty to all the welds and imperfections. I'm away now for a few days so the filter can sit and dry in peace, while I'm not there being tempted to sand on it.
