I’ve spent the last couple of months hoarding components to restore my dad’s 43ish year old Rog Ljubljana Marataon road bike. It’s been in our family forever, got stolen twice, and found, i rode it to bits, and when I moved to uni it stayed in the garage. A couple of years back, I disassembled it, and made a plan to restore and modernize it.
Found a good used Tiagra groupset, and picked up some Decathlon components to round it out. Modified the frame to take 130, and modern rim brakes with normal reach.
Tomorrow will be its first test ride, and I hope it will ride as good as I remember it.
