[RBW] A restoration is kicked off, officially

2013-12-04 Thread Bill Lindsay
As most of you caught, my beloved Father, James Robert Lindsay, died on 
October 4th, 2013.  Part of my recovery is being a smart-ass with people I 
like, like all of you.  Another part of my recovery and a tribute to my 
dear father is a restoration/conversion of his 1973 Windsor Carrera Sport.  
I got a nice step underway over Thanksgiving.  My sis-in-law had room to 
deliver the wheelset from Southern California up to me.  I'm doing a 
27-to-700 conversion.  I got the wheels taken apart and the hubs cleaned 
and polished.  I'm super excited about it.  I'll lace up the wheels 
tonight.  

Pictures prove I'm working

Riv content:  I'm switching to Twin Hollows, Albatross bars, Tektro levers, 
and MKS Sneaker pedals from Riv.  I'll likely use silver longboards as 
well.  The Brooks B17 I add and the 700x35 Paselas are definitely Rivish on 
this lugged steel MINA frameset (Made in North America).

The hubs look great, Bill.  Nice job.

Terrific idea.  Bike will be restored and there is a therapeutic and
contemplative exercise for the worker.  Win-win.

Good luck,
