SS number 3 (N+1 S-1)

[DR ◣◢]

Just had to add another SS to the household bringing the total to 3 now. (Why is this so addictive...)

 

2012 Fuji Feather. Swopped the saddle and pedals and removed the reflectors from the wheels.

 

All in all a really well built bike. Cheap as chips and quite surprisingly good quality. Will make a great CM bike and will be used on the trainer mostly.

Future upgrades include a new stem to allow a 25.8 bar.

 

Now to find space for all the bikes...

Now that is puuurty!

 

The flattened bars are super sweet! White and shiny is a great colour combo too.

 

Nice!

Thanks.

 

Im considering leaving the current bars, flipping them and cutting them to make bull horns. The drop is way too low for my liking.

 

Surprisingly comfy bike. The simplicity of the bike is awesome. And it comes with a flip-flop rear wheel.

Good old bullhorns! That takes me back.... I had one pair on the bike I rode to school and the other on my TT bike ala Fignon with no TT bars (they hadn't been invented yet!!).

 

Simplicity rocks.

Very nice. what ratios?

[zeabre]

Nice one...

Thx 46x16 i think.

Thx 46x16 i think.

 

Going to be fun climbing Oxford with that ratio

I am considering cutting the bars on the bike but I would prefer not to.

 

Does anybody have an old set of bars with a 22mm clamp size? Flat or drops.

 

Otherwise where can I find a pair. I know Renthal makes a riser bar with that clamp size but at R480 it's overkill.

[DR ◣◢]

Turns out the bar is a 26mm.

 

Quick chop of an old flat bar from the shed and she is looking a lot better.

 

Now the crap job of polishing the bar begins. Any tips will be appreciated.

Once the bar is polished up these will go on.

"Any tips will be appreciated."

 

Get someone else to do it - go to your local mag repair place and ask them, or prepare to suffer a bit using a polishing wheel - the bigger the better.

Or just go out during lunch and raid the parts bin at Linden Cycles for a silver bar?

[V12man]

Visiting Linden could result in additional bling and credit card stress...

 

You could just give it a semi matt finish with sandpaper.
