Looking good, the Holdsworth is nearly finished. Stronglight 42/46 rings up front, an 18T cog on the back. Which gives 63 and 69 inch gears. The Gillott has a 42T ring and 16 and 18 tooth cogs - giving the same ratios, near as dammit.
Could really do with a dynohub for the light, which is very nice but there's no room for a battery.
It's a great ride. One thing I can't work out, however, is why, when the Holdsworth and the Gillot are the same size in every dimension - I've measured - and the angles are also apparently the same; why does the Gillott have quicker steering than the Holdsworth? It's noticeably sportier. Wheelbase is the same. Maybe the head angle is slightly different. Dunno.
