I guess this is as good as a time as any to share with you all my ASC project. All that is left is to replace the chain ring to get a better gear range and new pedals, as the ones I have on now I find to be extremely uncomfortable.

It is a Carlton Flyer from 1945, originally my daily fixed rider, planned to be turned into a 3 speed with an AW, but I came across an ASC and as a long time fixed afficionado, had to go for it. Schmidt Generator, Mafac Racer brakes, Titan stem and bars, old french city levers, Wright Swallow, Chossy Saddle Bag, Nervar Cranks, etc. etc.

It's a ton of fun!
