Let's see your Pashley Guv'nor style bikes!

[Hammond Eggz]

I've been thinking about putting together a bike in this "Guv'nor" style (for lack of a better term), and I'd love to see what other people have come up with.
Anybody out there done this???

*For those not familiar, this is what I'm talking about:

heres my nishiki guv'nuhsan

[Hammond Eggz]

Nice! Same style, yet original - just what I was looking for.
Anybody else?

[sprucemoose]

Ha. I was just drooling over this bike. I saw an ad for it in the new Kickstand. Such a nice lookin bike! Lobsterboyx--nice ride.

Here's mine. 50's Malvern Star 2 Star frame with 700c wheels, Schwalbe Delta Cruisers, and Sachs Duomatic hub.
I've recently changed the bars from the Soma Noah's Arc to a Nitto promenade - took a little while to get used to the upright riding position, but I think it looks better.

[Hammond Eggz]

Wow, that's scary - you've used a lot of the same stuff I've set aside for mine! Nice job!

[Unchained]

Great thread idea!

Bean, that bike is gorgeous!

[Platypus]

Does mine fall into this category?

[Hammond Eggz]

Kinda - sorta.
*Funny, that looks like the bike I'll be using for my version, but in Chestnut!

Hmm, too many gears, fenders, need some white or cream tires, and paint it a darker green and you're all there! Seriously, nice bike! -Adam

Came across this style discussed at a bike shop today. I see what you mean where mine doesn't the grade. I fell in love once I saw one up close. I just cannot bring myself to tear this one apart. Though, I may put this concept on my girl's Peugeot. Thanks for the inspiration!

I don't blame you Plat, I wouldn't either! Love those campus green Schwinns! -Adam

I say, jolly good thread!

[stretch]

i think the phesant agrees.

[Smoopy's]

Here's mine. It's a 1968 Raleigh Super Course with original "Root Beer" paint. It has full Campy set-up. I converted it to a single speed/Fixed gear with 700cc weinmann's with Phil Wood hubs. this is an older photo ; I have since added leather grips, campy pedals & toe clips, and his name to the top tube.."Nigel". This is my around town commuter and my "Alley Cat" bike. I had to add the "beer crate" on the back to haul my frosty brews...enjoy!!
