Rebecca's CCM Mixte

This bicycle rides like a dream. With a 5 speed transmision, comfy Brooks B67 Saddle, new 'dirt rag brown' cables, brake pads and wicker basket. In tall gears the bike chain was seizing. I replaced the chain today as no amount of cleaning or chain wax was smoothing things out. Now it drives perfectly.

Inspiration

I have started to strip the bike down to the frame and now I am considering upgrading some of the components, new headset, cranks, hubs and wheels. I have made some inquiries however and have found that a lot of products available to distributors in the USA and Europe are not available in Canada. This I find very frustrating.
