well she is now almost done
i have some new pads to try out for her, and if they are ok i will buy a second set and she will be on then listed on the bay asap.
the autosol did the job. so did the rust remover. needed a fair bit of elbow grease but she has come up really nicely.
i will do a shoot with her in he full glory this weekend and then she will leave the nest.
shame. she is quiet an amazing bike and it will be sad to see her depart.
3TTT stem
will be shipping shortly. its a 22mm so it will fit the pug. happy about that. also shipping is the new headset. peugeots are now here to stay

tarini and i departed at around 10.15 this morning. he needs the stem taken out @ a place that has more than around 25 tools. i have also spoken to them about the chainline. i know it is out and we are going to work on what is the best way to sort that issue out. does anyone know someone with a buffing wheel? i really need to hit the 80 up badly for that real shein …. doh i forgot, no one reads this blog.
the docket is quiet funny.
no it isn’t a “blue - fixed Road Bike” it is a “blue - Broken fixed gear Road Bike”
NOTE: security black bar created in photoshop. every docket requires some kind of digital manipulation to improve is validity if viewed on the internet.
blog newz. i am going to try and create a full custom blog using moveable type. if it all goes to play you will see it. if not… you won’t lol.
