Columbus Max Appreciation

Actually the owner also has/had a gangsta

I was looking at a mielec before having the cash needed for the gangsta, I've been thinking about getting something else Polish and MAX since then though and have been emailing some people ;)

kuba?

that green one is mine. yeah saddle will be changed, the pink one was what i had lying around.

i quite like it, only the forks are MAX though innit. Reminds me of this

thanks. yeah i like that, hunter frame?
no all tubes are MAX, except maybe the seat stays as amey pointed out. i'll take some better photos at some point

Was this a direct commission to mr. rychtarski?

yep. kuba was awesome, great communication, and it was built and delivered in about 3 weeks from the first email

Italian BB?

nope british thread (bsa?)

Strange; mine has ITA thread ... I thought Max BB shells were always italian

Both my max BB shells are English threaded.

oh ..

Awesome!

Strange; mine has ITA thread ... I thought Max BB shells were always italian

why would you think that?

it's not like the actual bb shell is MAX

yeah it is?

obviously it can be cut to either thread though

That bb shell is actually part of the DT I think, need to have a look again but they kinda morf into one, doesn't even look welded.

well yeah that's kinda a bad example because the DT isn't actually MAX, but the BB has to be that shape for the CS and ST.
