Stripped it down and did a hap hazard mock-up. So I could get a feel for it. Tires, handlebars, sprocket and pedals will for sure be replaced. I haven't 100% decided on the color. I added a couple temporary thin plastic inserts on the rear wheel. If I decide to continue with that wheel I'll make the inserts out of 2ml vinyl color matched to the paint. And polish the aluminum. But I've got 3 sets of Wheels to mix and match before I finalize that. Today will be spent searching for a saddle, fender/s and tires. I'll be setting this up several different ways before this is over. Most likely end up with a couple bikes built from the spare parts.
