 Some cleaning, polishing, and buffing...

Old freewheel came off without much fuss - good to have the right tools.  I have installed a new 7sp Sunrace freewheel. I decided to go 7sp so that I can stay with the 126mm hub spacing of the old wheelset.  I have ordered a 7 speed STI Right shifter to work the sprockets.

Time to take the frame to the powder coating shop.  Thanks to Chumba Cycles for pointing me to Accent Powder Coating in Austin TX.   *Super excellent special thanks to my daughter for picking out the color.
