  • Bike looks like it's about to sneak off into the undergrowth, like a sneaky cat. Sort of the opposite of @Hulsroy's pomp conversion. It's interesting with all these wheel sizes and what happens to a frame when you switch between them!

  • My bikes live a hard life. I treat them well but they tend to get knocked about and locked up outside. I like the idea of a nice riding bike that looks ok enough for my humble tastes, but is too unassuming to draw much attention.

    The outer diameter, before tire squish, of these wheels and tires is similar to that of a 700c x ~20mm wheel and tire. The ride feels pretty quick still despite the squishy tires.

    Yeah I get that but I guess it's the rims that create the illusion. Anyway, glad you pulled your project off and that it's working out well for you.
