Bike Mielec

The wait time is about 10 weeks from payment, so almost there

It also depends if he's busy or not. For my frame it took 6 weeks from payment until it make it to my house.

Just received mine yesterday! It took him 8 weeks to ship from the day I paid. Not a day more. Frame looks good with new dropouts

A world better

I have been following this thread for a long time, and most of my knowledge about the Mielec frames came from here. This is my latest Mielec bike.

Triangular tubing

It's Wasteds bike - I think it's custom - he wrote something about it on Fixieking.dk

You're right. It is custom, but based on an existing french bike.
found the specs on the french grey/silver bike and then fitted it for my own size.

This was the original. Much alike, but it's all about the details ;)

you even kept the saddle angle :-)

Fitted a rack on my Mielec and did a touring trip last weekend. Too bad I couldn't fit normal panniers because I kept hitting them with my heels:/

mine:

How big tires can you fit in mielec track frame?
If it's less then 32mm then what should I specify to get
wider chainstays/higher brake bridge or what else could be the issue.

With wider chainstays on aluminium frame with a 120mm spacing, you are heading for pedal/spider strike on the chainstay - that said it can be done, but in this case requires a higher level of Polish and bike frame construction.

I think 32mm fits easily. I had 28mm with the wheel almost slammed and still had 3mm clearance to the seattube. If you put the wheel back a bit there should be no problem.

Smaller BCD, shorter cranks or hammer could fix that.
On a serious note the fact about polish is true and I won't
try to complicate things.

Racist?

Peace yo

I think the 32 should work, hope because that's what I'm trying now haha

mine:

Very nice!

Very thanks!

Racist?

I assumed linguistics.

Ive been looking around for a track frame thats drilled front and back for a while now, pretty hard to come by without buying a brother, affinity or blb.

I am super tempted to get a Mielec made, I really want a fast commuter, track-ish geo, but fixed gear. Cant for the life of me get bike cad to work, do they have an OTP or stock frame? i have seen this kind of style pop up a couple times on this thread..

any ideas??

this is just so rad.

FrameMielec, a heap of chinese carbon and Omniums.
