Put it some work on my shit bike and turned it into a not so shit bike. Well everything is relative, right? And everybody needs a shit bike. Dad mobile mode is officially on. Threw on some WI cranks from my parts box, changed inner cables, cassette to 10 speed put on a Zee derailleur and shifter. The basket is muj bueno and even has a d-lock holder. Got a mad bargain Salsa stem too and off went the bullmoose bars and on came some wide risers. Also fabricated some attachments for the lights on the fender and mid fork mount. Tyres changed to some 42mm Schwalbe Marathon Dureme's which easily fit under the fenders. I think it'll even fit 50's in there, we'll see the next time. I'm getting my flouro Magura HS33's Raceline Evo's serviced and those will go on soon and possible fold the fucking frame in half. Some Spokey dokeys are definitely on the list of things to come as they'll obviously enhance the shit bikes performance and make up for the fact that it weighs a fucking ton.
I got this frame for free and treat it like shit. I lock it up anywhere and that's what I love about it but it also has a lot of nice features like fitting big ass tyres, many mounts and internal wiring, which I might as well use at some point.
