I've been looking/responding to this forum for ages but it would seem that I'm pretty lax when it comes to bike builds... I just wanted to let you know that I love wrenching on bikes but I hate computers. Being an architectural draughtsman means I'm on one all day but the last thing I wanna do when I get home is to look at another screen :shock: . Well I thought I'd get my hands out of my pockets and show you a little of what I've been up to... (If this post is in the wrong place feel free to move it )
First up is my little daily rider. WARNING UNCLE STRETCH - THIS THREAD CONTAINS 20" WHEELS. Just thought I'd warn ya... :mrgreen:
I finally got my matching wheelset...
I think she's looking good, an absolute dream to ride 8) .
After looking at those wheels I decided I needed to appease my desire for rust... Scored a cheap frame and a few bits from Locolowriders, threw them together and got this...
And a shot of them together...
Riding those little 20 incher's was fun but fairly slow, so I thought I'd try my hand at a bit of speedway action...
Well I hope you like 'em so far, the next project is going to be a burrito build... I've got a bunch of old frames and parts and started sketching, so this ain't the last you'll hear of me!
