Bike build - Part 9

This is it. The final bits of the bike build.

Index the Gears


Photoshoot

Before the bike gets dirty :-)













 

Adjustment

I decided the steerer tube looked too long, so I cut it down.


Setup

I got Shelley out so I could setup the suspension and other parts to suit her. It was supposed to be a spare bike but she's claimed it :-)


Pump up the suspension.


Angle the saddle.


Shakedown

Before I'd finished checking it over, Shelley decided to take it for a shakedown ride.






When she got back, I adjusted the brake levers and reduced the tyre pressures to her normal preference.


I also took it for a short ride.


I am pleased with it and so is Shelley.
