Odometer replaced

Instrumentation has been replaced courtesy of the kind folks at Gears Bike Shop!

Running a custom kit of a Cateye Velo 5 attached to a Cateye Velo 8 Heavy Duty harness.

All hooked up, running superb.

Interesting phenomenon - look at the screen sideways with polarized glasses and everything turns black!

km 4500- ish

Still awaiting a service interval to install odometer. Not terribly urgent as the beast runs perfectly well without any numbers on the handlebar
.
Broke the rear wheel reflector recently whilst unlocking.

Inflated tyres to 50 PSI on August 12. They had gone over 30 days without checking and were down to 25 PSI.

Basically all is well now that the rear wheel and bottom bracket parts have been upgraded.

The knockaround bike rolls on.....
