Best looking tandem I've ever seen.

Might be fancier, but I like the other one better.

This one is a strong contender too, by the way:

Thread is definitely a winner.

Mine is in the top ten obviously.

Thread is definitely a winner.

Wow.dat

Update : New mudgards, bigger threader tires for winter, less gears :

Where are you going to take this? ;)

Them cranks!

Made a bag :)

Looks great, for functional minimal-winter-maintenance it gives me the chub. Any more info on the frame?

Rattle canned some old 650b mudguards for my Chesini, off the triple chainset, on the double I had lying around. Need to attach the basket to the rack, and might get a silver seatpost for a better balance with the bars.

This is really cool. Mighty shiny cassette you got there also.

Looks great, lots of conflict between stealthy parts and that frame!

Ah yes, also fitted recently to compensate for the lack of granny ring from the triple.

Ha! yes, it's a bit loud and also has got chrome so a lot is going on.

terrible photo

Looking good!

Made some more bags.

For a MTB a friend thinking to build up with 700C wheels I'm looking for a solutions for the brakes. The canti's or V-brakes don't reach the rim.
That's why I am asking there. On internet I found a solution from Mavic, but it's not made anymore.
There are also some other adapters, but they require for the brake bosses/pivot point to be with threads, his are fixed.
One day someone gave me a photo of a great technique but I can not find it anymore ...

: )

I’m guessing it can’t take regular calipers? Or do you really want to use canti?

That’s how I resolved putting 700c in a frameset made for 26” wheels.

And neatly utilized the front brake studs for the rack.

He really want to use canti... but thanks

Wow!
