Grow old disgracefully.

little set back today, bottom gyro cup was out of shape and cables wouldnt thread through, had a new sst oryg so swapped all the bits, first time the forks had been out in 17 years, greased it up and put it back together, just need to fit the brakes and drill the pegs to 14mm and i'm all done (if i can get a drill bit) happy days :daumenhoch: :daumenhoch: :daumenhoch:

I bought a blacksmiths drill bit from toolstation for about £4  :daumenhoch:

The shank is stepped down to 12.7mm so providing your drill can take a 13mm bit it will fit  :daumenhoch:
