Lennie Rogers Track & Eddy Merckx Corsa Extra

General Post your ride
1

I’ve been told to stay away from riding by my doctors the greater part of this year due to a pinched nerve in my back but that’s getting better now so it’s convenient that I’ve just finished building my Rogers and Merckx. I’ve taken the Rogers for a few spins around at the carnegie velo, it rides nice though I can’t skid and don’t really want to as my knees take enough of a battering from indoor soccer. I’ve got some Superbe Pro Hubs that need to be built up but for now these wheels do the job just fine. Next year I’ll try to come out on a Wednesday ride.

Thanks to manbau, clarion, fyxomatosis and ebay for parts, ShifterDan for some frame work.
