Nearly there with this build now and thought I'd share some further prettier shots of it from my camera since upgrading the wheelset and polishing her up.
Begged, borrowed and stolen parts from other bikes and friends, smooth as ride with the ability to chew up some gravel now thanks to the wider tyres. She's gone from a mainly road touring bike to a go anywhere steel dream machine.
Highlights of the build are:
Frame – Reynolds 531 Claud Butler Majestic (late 70's)
Wheelset – Zipp 30 Course
Bars – Rune Bicycles Hilt Bar 480mm
Levers – TRP RRL SR
Tyres – Ultradynamico Cava 42.??
Bell – Customer engraved from Lion Bells Etsy
Front rack – Pelago commuter large
Converted it to 1×9 with 36t in the front and kept the original cranks and inner chain ring which is now on the outer. Next on the list is a bar end shifter and derailleur upgrade.
