Love your channel. You've inspired me to refurbish older bikes. I would love to see a close up of the finish product in all its glory, instead of a faraway shot.
Thank you so much for watching. I generally put all the detail shots of my work on Instagram under lasky.evan . A few glamour shots in the video might be nice.
I have encountered those type of hub dust-cap before, but did not know they pulled right off like that. I'll give them more of a tug next time. I just got in there behind them, with a Q-tip as well as I could. You mentioned sometimes having to set the hub adjustment a few times before you get it right. This has been my experience, but I have found the head-set to be even more finicky. I wanted to ask you about the chain. Did you re-use the original chain? if so, how did you get it clean? With just the mineral spirits? It looked pretty far-gone beforehand. Thanks for the video and the tour at the end. I've never gotten to see Chattanooga.
Paul, Thanks for watching. I replaced the chain. You could clean up the chain with some rust remover, but in my experience they get loose after you do that. I like doing the tour at the end of each build. It allows me to test ride the bike and make any necessary adjustments. Chattanooga has a wonderful Greenway and Riverwalk. It's a bit long for me to do on foot, but perfect on a bike.

Wow. This frame looks like what my father had in the 90s.
I love the colors on this one. I knew had to save it.
