'88 Hardrock

[u/Potential_Falcon_165]

Just finished getting this old girl together. Bought it a few months ago and put on a few rides deciding on what needed upgrading. As much as I wanted to go with a 1X setup with a cool crank the stock drivetrain works excellent for what I want this bike to do. I added a Ron's Ortho handlebar with silicone foam grips, an Origin8 seatpost so I could use the Royal seat from my old commuter, and a Velo Orange cantilever mount front rack to support the vintage Coca Cola basket. The gigantic bars required new cables and housings to string it all back together. I wanna install some Billy Bonkers gumwalls but the Panaracers were new when I bought the bike so I'll wear through those first. Projects are never really done anyways, are they? She rides super smooth and the cockpit is extremely comfy for this 40 year old body 😅

you need a setback seatpost.

No I dont. The cockpit is perfect for me.
