Today I learned that my chosen front tyre was out of stock and wouldn't be delivered for six weeks - I needed a new plan.
Instead of building the wheels and leaving the bike rolling but tyreless, I'll rebuild both brakes and test them before I touch the rims. That way, I'll be able to get the brakes sorted and still be able to test them. albeit on old tyres. I'll only ride it across the yard, and I'll be able to sort out several other little jobs in the meantime.
To start with, I've been looking at the rear of the mudguard. The seat hides two of the bolts:
Or at least, it does if the seat is mounted in the wrong place. The mounts on the frame are slotted, and if you push the seat forward it not only closes up the ugly gap behind the tank, but you can get those bolts out too!
