Thanks! I bought her this summer from a LBS that got her back after she was stolen, stripped down of all components, and spray painted the classic stolen bike nasty black. Yes, she was a sight! Got all the spray paint off with a product called Winning Colours (miracle stuff, btw) and several Tuffy scrubbers, and started picking up parts here and there. Polished and waxed her up, touched up a few scuffs, and she looked like new.Originally Posted by redrhodie
Ended up giving her mostly Ultegra components, Neuvation wheels, Bontrager WSD bar, cushy Fizik bar gels, and my old Koobi saddle.
This project really took me back to when I used to work on my brother's hand me down road bikes in my teens. I keep thinking how was I able to do all that back then without Google and YouTube? Lol!
