New (to me) bike day

The boring-looking one is the “new” one - even though it’s actually two years older than the “old” one.

I snapped the frame on my previous bike, so I bought another almost identical one - as one does when they don’t learn from their mistakes.

My old one has a 12x1 drivetrain, while the new one has a 10x1, and the gearing ratio is awful. It’s way too stiff to pedal uphill, even in the lowest gear. I’ll start by swapping the front chainring for a smaller one, but I might end up converting it to an 11x1 or 12x1 setup later on.

Other than that, there’s just a ton of duct taping to do.
