Hi all,
I've been over our new Aerospace Deore AX18 and cleaned a few bits. Apart from new tyres and a chain, she needed very little work and Mrs LHJ is pleased. I managed to get a period correct pump and the Sylvan Touring pedals look the part. I'll keep hold of the Shimano Ax600's, but they'll probably live with the original Viscount saddle in storage. I replaced the mudguard blades to smarten things up and Mrs LHJ was quite (very) keen on pink bar tape! A pair of suicide brake levers to finish off and we’re ready to start racking up the miles. We still need to sort out a proper saddle and try and match the paint for some touching up, but for now we plan to enjoy getting out an riding.
