Yet another update on the Univega Alpina Uno. This bike has been getting a lot of mileage lately and I felt it was time to give it some well-deserved upgrades.
I built a new wheelset with 36 hole Sun Rhyno Lites laced to an 8/9 speed LX hub in the rear and a Kasai dynamo hub in the front. Stock wheel was a 6 speed so I had to cold set the dropouts from 130 to 135.
Changed the rear mech to a modern Deore to handle the 8 speed cassette.
Wired up a Busch and Muller IQ-x headlight and a secula plus tail light.
Threw on some SKS fenders for the fall and winter. Outfitted the front with a Velo Orange mudflap.
I'm really loving where this is right now. No build is ever "done"... but this feels damn close.
