Working on the Flash again maybe get some cabling done today. Happy new years to all you folks out there. Hoping you find some peaceful family time for yourselves.

That replacement rigid fork appeared to me to have a way too long steerer.
besides cutting to length there must have been some additional threading cut?

victorm -- I might have missed it, but have you written up the parts list for this build?

Looks fantastic, by the way. I'm sure you get lots of good comments when out riding. Most people simply don't see such a classic-looking machine, these days, certainly not one in that condition.

First time seeing this thread, and it's an inspiration, as I have two MTB projects underway. What a cool bike!
