Almost got the RD back together. I ordered a tank rubber from Sumo Rubber and that arrived the other day. I also ordered a set of tacho dampers but they sent me some for a RD LC. Emailed them and they are going to send me the correct ones no charge.
I went to pick up my rear sprocket and wheel spacer yesterday but i think he was at the pub already as it was 3pm on a Friday. Bummer because I really want to see if i can finally get the chain alignment perfect and the rear wheel centred as best as it can get.
Really hanging to get the bike completely finished and ready to ride. I reckon however that will be another three months due to needing tyres. I am considering buying the rear tyre first just so i can get the bike pretty much finished. Then a month or two later get the front tyre. I really want Avon race tyres but I need to buy them from the States and have them shipped by a friend or fam as i can't find a Co who will ship to Aust.
While i was in the shed i did look at my GT mountain bike and think, hmmmmm 250 bucks right there.... That would buy me a rear tyre for the RD. But I'm a bit reluctant to sell it as i would never get another decent mountain bike. Although it hasn't been ridden for three years I'm still attached as it's a bloody good bike.
