I had a nice ride in today on the frankenbike. The downtube friction shifters work much better than I'd imagined. With all the fixed riding I've been doing, I only really shift when I need to- rarely. I had a slight issue with the bars sliding around. You'd think a 0.4mm mismatch between clamp and bar would be a non-issue, but I managed to tighten everything up. My back thanks me for not wearing the backpack. I'm also finally getting into the moustache bars. Next I'll be subscribing to the Rivendell Reader. I'm contemplating a club ride tomorrow- just to freak everyone out.
I mostly escaped the rain this morning. Hopefully the sun will dry everything out for my ride home. Three cheers for coasting for a change!
