I've got it up and running, still needs lots of detail cleanup, but it goes forward (and backward, sort of) now.
This project was built mostly out of recycled bits from stuff I had sitting around. I actually paid cash money for the brake pads, the big ring, levers and hoods, a used headset top nut, spokes and wheel relacing labor, tires, the new cables and housing. Everything else was just sitting here in little boxes waiting for a bicycle. Even the leather handlebar cover was recycled from another handlebar.
My question is, does that lace-like drilled big ring work? I mean if I actually shift into the big ring and stand up or something silly, does the whole thing dissolve into bits of aluminum?
