  • Did you ever take it down to the LBS to get it looked at?

  • Great! Here is finally the Mash ^^. Full black build(and clothes) looks good. Your pictures give it justice! I wish I could do some nice pictures like this.

  • Thanks! There's a couple of things I want to change (pedals and stem are at the top of the list) but it's really fun to ride.

  • for some reason i really like the way omnoms look on brooklyn frames

  • I will if I decide to keep it. In two minds atm

  • Was thinking of selling this so put wheels on to take photos, with wheels on it looks so nice I now don't want to :/

    Have a dilemma tho, just put down a deposit on a lil puppy doge and I want to build a bike with a front rack so I can continue my aim of not using the tube ever...

    I would want the bike in question to have atleast one brake and be easy to ride with a dog on the front.

    Currently have:

    Nelson which can run a brake but seems silly putting a rack on that as it's good at being a fast bike.

    Brooklyn would be sick with a rack, would need to fit a brake. Think a disc brake would be cool (and rims are made for disc's) but would need to get a disc brake fork for it and relace the front wheel to a disc brake hub.

    and have RIH.

    So options are sell RIH and build something more suited, maybe a road bike (love cannondale rack in cp)
    or
    Keep RIH and put rack / brake on brooklyn.

    help plz... any suggestions of good disc fork for brooklyn?

    Was also thinking get a cheapo pre cursa or something and put rack and disc on...

  • Fuck bikes.

    Your getting a puppy!!!
    Let me meet it!

  • In a more helpful response.

    Disc brake plus rack on Brooklyn with 35c will be rad.

    ps. I will dogsit when needed.

  • Oh my days I love puppies.

  • @Dakin yeah boi, lil frenc bulldog. Pickup next weekend, you can definitely meet and dogsit!

    Most tempted by brooklyn direction currently, wat fork?

  • bmw with rack +1

  • RIH looks amazing man, tbh depends on if you believe its worth the trouble/money, I'm happy to help in anyway I can.

  • Another vote for rack on the brooklyn. Will look ace.

  • Fuck man so amazing.

    That'll be the thing. You could go full touring fork kinda thing which @spotter and @edscoble will be able to advise on. Or just go for a CX fork.
    Maybe even a MTB rigid form could work pretty well

  • Nelson as fast bike with drops
    Brooklyn sensible with wide risers, brake, basket
    RIH summer town skidder with risers.

    Those clearances are too tight to not built it up.

  • You could probably get a disc tab put onto the brooklyn forks, I'd imagine they're more than strong enough to deal with the stresses of a disc brake, then all you've got to do is find a framebuilder to do it

  • agree with @umop3pisdn
    RIH as a pub bike.

    Also the forks are so stiff i have no doubt this is a good option.
    get some rack eyelets put on too

  • Yeah I was thinking this on the way in to work this morning, could be a nice option.

    Been looking at racks, like the look of the cetma 5 rail http://cetmacargo.com/pages/cetma-racks-info

    looks like it should be big / strong enough. And then will build a dog box that I can strap to it

  • Literally just sold one of these last week.
    Shame.. They're real good. Strong, stiff but not overly heavy.

  • Ah man, always the way. If your buyer gets bored of it in the next few weeks get them to give me a shout...

    What I really want is one of these http://larryvsharry.com

  • I want a bullit so bad. So sick that its a genuine alternative to a car

  • Yeah man, saw a courier guy on one the other day. Speaker strapped to the bars, big case of shit on the front. Living tha life

    @umop3pisdn agree with you dude! And you won a shit fixie skiders say for that too

  • Always wanted one of them, you are now a lvl 5 fixie skidder

  • What size is the RIH? May well be interested if you decide to sell it on
