                  I know a couple of people a bit closer to home who can do this for you. Alot of my friends in the city are framebuilders. People who are more familiar with the brazed construction of your old merckx

                        ^ hahaha...yeah, it's a work in progress. Still have to finalize a few things. The front derailleur height has to be adjusted once I get the big 'ring. The Magura HS33's are on the way at the moment, hence the 'no brakes'. Headset spacers need to be replaced, those were for tweeking the stemheight.

                        And most importantly, still looking for some decent skinwalls...

                              Legit. I love how period-correct this bike is. Feels like 1995 all over again.

                                I have a set of blue Controltech allen key skewers on the way also. The Maguras arrived before x-mas but i've had no desire to do any work on the bike lately. Too cold to ride.....
