As you know I've taken it on. It made a trip to France, lived there for a while (how long, I don't know), but is now back.
Written a short story about this; it's not finished yet, but will post when it is. Just a bit of fun.

Sorry for not getting back with the story yet. I haven't touched it. Massive landlord vs. me war going on and I'm busy with the business plan, etc. The Indy is now completely stripped of everything and the hubs are freed, too. Some idiot has tried himself at lacing, damaging the flanged to quite a degree. They're unbranded Viscounts but, curiously, with steel axles. I now appreciate the alloy axles. The difference in weight is massive. See here the latest blog post if you're interested: theviscountaffect.blogspot.co.uk/2014/02/victory-over-rather-stuck-freewheel.htmlSo, the Indy had a Regina freewheel and it seems common. What was yours, Jem? |

What was yours, Jem? Good luck in that battle Stella. Fingers crossed for you. Give him/her hell! I will have to go out to the shed tomorrow to give you a definitive on the freewheel but you know what...Regina rings a bell with me...but we'll see. What bike are you taking to DFR2 then Stella? |
