this new crate adapter. |
|
The bike whose frame I straightened here is taking shape, I have replaced the generator lights front and back with battery lights, |
|
And here it is with the new crate adapters fitted and in portrait mode, the back adapter acts as a stand. |
|
New additions to the stable which (of course) need fixing, are this one, a |
|
"FU 22/5", or "Edithvale FU" after the suburb I got it from (another one is mentioned here, and they say "Perhaps FU stands for Fold-Up, 22/5 being 22 inch wheels, 5 speed. I
have not seen that before. I have heard people say "F You" meaning
something else". Never a truer word was spoken) |
|
And this one, Edithvale Vale Blue with a paint job I really like! |
|
Some rusty tools and a mouldy old saddle bag came with Edithvale blue |
|
Rear lighting wiring I've never seen before on Edithvale blue. Other bikes have had the wiring tucked into the folded edge of the mudguard. |

Non-original Shimano derailleur on Edithvale Blue |
|
Rust parts soaking in vinegar and water. This is more a test of the process than actually needing the parts restored. |
Pics say it all, some of my work of the last few days
