Brooklyn Machine Works

Here is mine today.

Things to do when I can get some time;

Build my black Archetypes to silver Goldtecs,
Install 44rn chainring which will also mean new chain and cog, probably another KMC D 101 and Superstar.

Oh, and when I build the wheels they will be shod with 25c Hardshells meaning I reach the Nirvana like state of having all my bikes with the same tyre.

32c on a Gangsta for me any time of a year, I had 25c only when rode it to Brighton. Bigger tires is the purpose for the bike really.

I like your plans, Matt. Archetypes to Goldtecs would be my ideal wheelset on a Gangsta I think.

Remember, I still have the original forks with V-brake bosses when I feel like a bit of fat fun ;)

Will probably keep the current pictured wheels with some fatties on them if I ever feel like a change but, to be honest, I'm really enjoying it as it is now (considering I was a click away from posting the F+F in the for sale thread a few months back!).

Picked up a black seat post from dis guy^ today, feels good to have gotten rid of the silver one, had to pretty much slam the saddle back on the rails to get the same position but that's fine.

Need to get a better picture tomorrow.

New post!

Looking good matey!

I hope youre serious!

Why wouldn't I be?

On that subject…

What the hell happened?

This happened

http://www.lfgss.com/thread543-21.html

got hit by a car turning right across 2 lanes at some traffic lights. She did not see me and caught me pretty much midships.

the F&F was up on eBay a few months ago and another forum member picked it up...

I'm selling my gangsta, it's a v2 short so 55.5 effective top tube, it's the one that's attached but is in more "used" condition paint chips etc but no dents, included is the frame, forks, headset, seatpost (this is quite badly scratched but could be re-anodized quite easily) I feel the condition is reflected in the price - £330

Contact via pm please, first to arrange meet/payment gets it

You out of the gangsta life or changing size?

Temporarily out, need the money currently but will be on the look out for a v2 long in a few months time hopefully

Indra you getting another? So tempting. Sell MTB, buy this...

Dammit, why does that white frame keep coming up for sale when my bank account is running low ...

Hoping that another six months down the line it pops up again and I'll actually be able to afford it!

If that's still available I think I'll take it. You have PM.

Nah, dibs'd for a mate but he can't take it right now.

This is my Gangsta v2

Nice. More pics anywhere?

I think you meant this: http://danielb.kuvat.fi/kuvat/Mielenmaisemaa+2014/

yep

Shiny!

A touch of light Scoblisation ahead of her longest ride yet, over to Belgium for the start of RVV.
Hoping that on the open road she proves herself to be versatile as I hope after a good month or so in the city.
