Midschoolfool:
Cut the fork last night.



Then the most ridiculously heavy and over built brake levers arrived today  :LolLolLolLol:

Midschoolfool:
Brakes done and dialled.











Last jobs are fitting the 4 pegs if they ever arrive (Hermes) and the seat. On this post.



I know I know, I am anti lay back. Ever caught yourself in the dick with a set of uncut bars? Now you know why we cut the shit out of them in those days. It's not pleasant  :LolLolLolLol:

Midschoolfool:
Balls. Seems I missed an update. Sorry dudes.



Pegs and post are fitted.



It's now unbelievably heavy  :LolLolLolLol:

Seats I ordered are supposed to be coming today, but losing hope. I did find this.



It's a DMR 4130 post that looks identical to a Primo rod. No tax though, so it was ?10 delivered (what I mean is no sentimental tax was applied).

Midschoolfool:
Seats arrived yesterday. Duly fitted. Post arrived this morning, not sure if I am using it yet. Bike is done though.

Midschoolfool:
Working on the Super Fork.





I just sanded the legs out fully and "that annoying bit in the middle". I stopped short of the drops because there is a reasonably large koof on one leg, and a small one on the other.



I could basically sand forever and get nowhere, so that will need either the hand file or the belt file. The end cap on one side has taken a smack too, and is sticking out a wee bit. Same, that will get the file.
