Back to having a track bike, after many years without. Some rollers too.
This is an early 80s Peter Bundy frame. Zeus crown and tips, Ishiwata 017 tubing, cinelli steel bar and stem. OR7 rims like those I had on a Reagan so many years ago, but they are not in a rideable state.

There’s just something about the Bundy’s that hits all the right notes

Got these ME5 as an upgrade to my old MO88 spd mtb shoes. They look like they have plenty of grin for those hike a bike sections.

So good! How’d you find it?

It’s been maybe 6 years since I’ve ridden MTB on any real trail. That was a 26" hardtail. Took this around the same loop and side trail to check it out, this bike is much better. Dropper post took a little getting used to, but by the end of 10km of XC/firetrail both up and down hill I was into the swing of it.

Heading to Thredbo this weekend for a two day session, so aiming to stay complete/unbroken afterwards.

Nice, just take it easy and make sure your suspension has been set up properly for you.

Sag set to 25-30%. These air systems make it super simple! I certainly didn’t feel it bottom out on the loop. There will be no shortage of advice or tools on the weekend. One of the group going is a 10 year old kid, so I’ll be trailing him.
