Hey,

Yeah the bike is going great, I took it on a small Guangdong trip a couple of weeks back. I was on my trusty yingang all summer because of the fabulous help they can provide with storage and shipping, and also because it's registered! Trying to register the jialing is an ongoing saga, I've been close a few times but still haven't got the plates. The documents are currently with some friends with guangxi in Guangxi and I'm crossing all my fingers and toes that they can come up with the goods!


If/when I get it registered I'll really start going to town on it. Plans include some tourfella or equivalent panniers and perhaps somewhat controversially a MAG rear wheel so I can fit a tubeless tyre. ChinaV was absolutely appalled by that idea and even called me a rude name when I asked him what he thought!

I'll keep u posted
