divernick Posted September 9, 2013 Share All done. Old cassette and new chain don't like one another, so she'll revert to SS duty soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

quintonb Posted September 10, 2013 Share Ok so here are a few pictures of my almost complete restoration of a 1989 Hanson built with Reynolds 525. This bike my folks bought for me when I was in Std. 8. I have a choice between a 50cc Buzz bike or this. I have hung onto the frame for all these years, but unfortunately the components have worn out. I get hold of this guy in Joburg and he has an almost brand new 1898/90 "Blue" 105 groupset, the exact same groupset the bike came with. I will add some pictures of what it looked like and what it looks like now. Edited September 10, 2013 by quintonb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quintonb Posted September 10, 2013 Share The hubs and cranks had signs of corrosion, so I polished them up and will have "Shimano 105" put back on and clear coated. Still the original Biopace chainrings, in very good condition Chro Mo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quintonb Posted September 10, 2013 Share The hubs are the silver version, I only have the front "Blue" hub, still need to find a rear one.105 hubs built on Wolber TX Profil rims. Both rims are almost brand new as well.Hubs as still extremely smooth, amazing after so many years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
