• Spent a few hours in the Fista cave with @bankiren over the weekend and threw this bastard together. It was originally a road frame converted with track ends and respaced to 120mm. This is the first incarnation with a few space holders. It'll be running fixed untill I get a some other parts I need. The master plan is to respace it to 130mm, weld disc tabs and a hanger on it and use it as a shit weather lock up bike. Fenders and a front rack will happen too. So far @bankiren changed the headtube to a 1 1/8 one in like 20 minutes (!) and I took off the brake bridge. Fits 38mm tires easily now & theres room for fenders too. All good so far. It's still work in progress but you get the idea.

  • good stuff! respect to @bankiren, usually people claim that is impossible to weld thin tubes with MIG/MAG even if they have experience in welding. most of the guys that I know tried and burnt holes through the tubing..
