Spin out on the Eastway ST1.0 Steelie

I have only used this bike a couple of times so far this winter season as i havent been off the Krampgrease for the offroad miles. I was looking at it the other day and thought its about time it got an airing. I pumped up the tyres / oiled the gears and away she went today. The rear gears are skipping a touch so need to fine tune the cable tension but it still rides well. There is alot less drag than the Krampgrease but not so comfortable on the bumpier sections. It was a quick blast along the old line to Bishop & back with still plenty of icy sections along the way but the sun was blazing away. Hopefully get a few more rides on the Eastway this week, oh and i need to order a new mud flap for the front mudguard. My old one has split and the mud guard is too short but its mainly dry at the mo. below are a couple of pics from today -
