Cleaning bicycles is cathartic.

Deep-cleaned both bikes (road & gravel) that are still fit for street duty as well as the old vintage steel bike that... definitely needs some love once I'm in my new place. Then there's that old touring bike frame that has emotional value to me that I'll build up into a semi-modern steel randonneur next summer.

These fine vintage Dura Ace brake levers will replace the brown Shimano 600s on the vintage bike because the 600s suffered a lot from a crash that brought me into the hospital a few years back. The more modern looking levers will end up on

the randonneur.
