I'm happy to laugh at myself also
About 3 years ago was when I realised I never owned a set of Tuffs as a kid. Don't know what made me realise that but it led me down a fairly strange path to say the least!
I bought a couple of frames, I couldn't even remember now what my first framset was to be honest (even though it's only 3 years ago).
But when I bought this one, I decided i wanted to build it. It would be my first build and first rider in about 25 years!!
When I was done, i was pretty chuffed. I was lucky enough that many of you experienced guys had the decency to politely point out the flaws instead of just sending me off the hobby.
Needless to say, after looking back through all of the lessons that you guys have learned and shared, I went ahead and made them myself anyway
Check the seat and guts! And the stem height. Retro cranks wasn't the worst choice for a rider, but the $12 repop Wellgo pedals certainly will never see the light of day again
