Thanks Bobby. I rode it in service yesterday. I had a couple amusing shake-down ride experiences:
1. I forgot how easily chrome seatposts slide. My 75.5cm SH was 73cm by the time I got home. Tighten it up, Nancy! 2. I was getting noise shifting into the 32 cog, and this 1973 suntour derailer has a B-Screw, so I tightened it, rotating the derailer AWAY from the freewheel in order to clear the 32. That made the noise worse. Turns out that it runs quiet when the upper jockey wheel is almost riding on the 32, so I had to loosen the b-screw. It was kind of the opposite of normal rear derailer setup conventions I LOVE LOVE LOVE the Albatross bars. More add-ons will include the Nitto wireguard, to keep my Saddlesack off the rear brake. I also ordered a pair of black Sackville hub shiners, and a hammerstrike bell.
