Vomit Comet

[copycat]

Built this for last years (2007) FBI meet in Amsterdam, but couldn't afford to finish it/travel. It was supposed to be covered in fake vomit, hence the name, but after going through all the trouble I though it'll be pretty stupid.....

...anyway I just finished it today, 18 month after starting it!

....those out there following the latest build-off will see the same head tube mounts on Hokum-Pokum which are for this....

....just got some bike repairs to plough though and then it's back to Hokum-Pokum...

Nice new take on the chain guard!

Did you build the frame and fork from scratch? Love the dropouts and parts selection especially the cranks and brake. Do you have the brake hose routing inside the frame?

Lots of cool details on this one! How do you put the right amount of tension on your chain? Is it a eccentric bottom bracket? love the juicy brakes and the routing through the frame.

Really pleased with the chain guard - on a previous frame I made one out of welded steel plate, which looks 'ok' but is just too heavy.

Yeah, the frame and fork were built from scratch, with the brake hose running through one of the laterals.

Yeah, chain tension is maintained by an eccentric bb, although it is running a wee bit tight.

Many thanks,

Owen.
