Hey guys, after serving me well for over two years I've left my old Velvet/Victoire bike polo frame and forks sitting around doing nothing for 6 months. I've sparked up some enthusiasm to build it into a solid commuter. Would be nice to document the process:
Here's what it used to look like:
The idea is to go front disc with rear v, down to the fact that originally this frame was 110 spaced for no apparent reason so fitting a disc brake in there may be an issue (although i've never tried). Ex-polo frames are great, if only they had rack mounts...
