Royal Revamp


As if they didn't have enough distractions already, my house-mates have now acquired yet another bicycle to fix up. This time it's a 1960's Royal.  Pretty swank but definitely not better than the dog park.


The Royal has a 3-Speed Sturmey Archer internal shifter straight from the U.K. In fact, every part of the bike is labeled "Made in England" which is pretty brilliant. (That's a lie actually, the tires are from Austria).  


 The seat will be reupholstered.
 
And stupid electrical tape gunk removed. Seriously, who wraps a bike in electrical tape?
