I picked up this ‘74 Int’l frameset from @Andy_K over the winter, built it up with various bits I had around, but it wasn’t until today that I had a chance to give it a test run:








Huret mechs worked surprisingly well with very little lever throw needed to shift the RD. These Weinmann center pull brakes with steel straddles also work really well, but usually don’t have enough reach for what I need. However, on this frame, they worked. Saddle is a recovered Brooks from @rhm. Only problem is that I had to stop three times to tighten the NDS crank arm bolt. That’ll need some attention. Overall a smooth rider.
