    And I Came upon this piece of art a few weeks ago, a Libertas Broadway 26". Great color, great condition and a dirt cheap. the latter won me over.

    And the Diamant has it's new 3T carbon handlebars. Another plan is to sand carbon part of the seat post and remove the grey decal. Busy times ahead.

    Nice trip plans, hopefully the weather is good too. I didn't cycle in that flanders area but wouldn't you visit some of the small villages like oudenaarde/geraardsbergen with some of the famous 'hills'?

    thanks! not as stable as the original mounts but strong enough for my use

    Busy times at home and at work so I didn't finish the Diamant yet, but I hope it will be done by the end of next month or so. Also the Gazelle Trim Trophy and Peugeot Mtb will have some nice updates and I bought an ugly 26" Libertas (never heard of) broadway so new pictures are coming

    Miche seatpost is not broken yet

    now I know why it was so cheap. But another good reason to keep an eye on my diet, let's see how long it will last

    Progress on the Diamant is slow because I was smart enough to order some things abroad so now I've to wait. But the weather is shitty for road cycling anyways so this isn't really a problem.

    What I did is change a few things on the Jan Janssen, it got new seat post and because I was annoyed by the handlebar clamps of the wald basket I took one of the clamps and changed so it fits onto the front brake bolt. And a gold chain because no reason.

    Nice miche seatpost:
