Brooklyn Machine Works

Sorry Tom. I made a promise to keep this bike forever. You might not like a yellow frame set anyway.

So, as the newest member of the gangsta owners club (thanks @edscoble) who's do people recommended to put some canti bosses on the fork and repowder coat them.

Somebody local ish would be good (south coast) do demon frameworks in Southampton do that kind of thing ?

Dunno about Southampton, but pretty sure @Nice_Ben got his added by Quirk Frameworks in London, if that helps.

this thread: buys gangsta, immediately wants to turn into a pompino; repeat.

Talked to Demon when I lived in southy. He's so busy with his own frames he said he can't do custom small fixes etc. Being you I'd go to Quirk or send them to Argos. Talking from recent personal experience the latter done an amazing job on both welding and removing bits. Save this space for the V1 rebuild ;)

Lols

Cheers, I had a feeling Demon would be a no go, I just liked the idea of being about to drop the forks off myself.

Anyway this is my current build, I'm waiting on a saddle for the BMW post and the bars and stem are just what I had laying around for now. (The wheels do match Phils on DT Swiss just the tyres don't)

Have I not given you the BMW seatpost?

Bike look cracking!

Yeah, sorry. I've got the seat post, I'm just waiting for a saddle to put on it.

Has anyone ever put an alpina/straight track fork on a short V2 before? Just curious as to what it would do to the geo

it would look like a lo pro, with the bb and pedals going down

I think Sven cycles are on the south coast

Looks like this on a large one

Le Sigh 😞

regrets

wtf is that saddle

I am pretty sure there is one of these for sale outside Full City.

Yeah rob quirk quirk did mine in London. Mines rad but I'm not gonna be able to do serious CX on it Coz of toe overlap and how aggressive it is, so I'm actually Debuilding mine tmr, pictures will follow. Building it back up as a rat bike I think, all the original components I had on it but I'm gonna put it through full rust treatment and satin lacquer in a few months time once I grind the mounts off

a really old super corsa which is dying with the rails hugely bent. need to find a flite to replace with

Nice to see she's getting ridden hard

I've a Flite that would work

:-)

@TM whatsapp me

St Werburghs is paradise

Yeah there is.
£650 for the full build.

My Brooklyn. Installed 32c Gators yesterday - comfy, fast, fun.
