• Finally finished this. It is a bike for someone with achondroplasia, which is a form of dwarfism.

    Everything is a pain in the arse with these, normal tubes are too short in the butt, hence the carbon. Getting calipers to clear at the back requires lots of bending. The cranks had the wrong chainline for ultegra so needed machining, and so on and so on. Anyway, its all done now, except fot the custom mudguards. Which I snapped. YAY BIKES!

  • Great work dude!
    You’ve managed to make a great looking bike despite all the difficulties you’ve had to work around. So good that there are people doing this sort of thing.
    Chapeau to you.

    That looks so good and must be the pinacle of what custom bike fitting is about 😀
