Singlespeed for Zoe
I bought this bike for Zoe on eBay. I'd never heard of Norta. Still haven't really. But it's a nice, light steel frame, so I'm guessing it Cro-Moly. They were made in Belgium in the 80s, but not any more. When she was still in Heidelberg, she was riding it around as a singlespeed, but I was too lazy to swap the cluster for a single sprocket. But now that she's in London, she wants to take the bike there, and there's no way she could ride it around like that in Hackney. All the cool kids would laugh at her! So I made the conversion, and put my hacksaw to good use again on the drop bars. I think the result is pretty hot.
