Hulsroy's Hustle

That thing is hot! Is there a dedicated topic for the build?

@Hulsroy is a person, not a thing. Don't objectify him.

You're right, I'm sorry - can I put the blame on the apron?

Proportions on this are 👌

Thanks. Fitting the rear mudguard was a pita tho. I totally tukt it too much. And I'll never do hidden eyelets again.

You live and you learn ;)
Total 'gram fodder though.
I think the only thing that gives the size away is that the drops almost look too deep/out of proportion.

Proper photos

I have a couple of cameras I'd like to try.
Also if you marry again I'd like to be your wife.

That sounds like a date :)

what u bought now

Hipstermatic camera thread >>>>>

I need a 15mm through axle dynamo front wheel.
Any suggestions? Preferably cheap.

I would like to know too. And 12mm while I’m at it

Welding is getting better. Increased gas flow today.

Resulted in a rack for my wife's rando.
I just need to sort a headbadge and some decals now.

I've never seen a small drop bar bike looking that good, excellent work

Thanks! Surely there is more good looking custom 26" things out there. What is limiting this sort of thing is components I guess. Mostly tyre choice...

You got a proper bender for that tubing?

I have some similar looking sized tubing that I was thinking about using to creating a new top section for my pizza rack (with integrated basket, instead of having a wald zip tied to it) but dunno if I can bend it myself.

I have had issues with a really good one costs ££

I have have ended up using a vintage 3/8" bender I bought on eBay. It is shit for 3/8" but great for 10mm ERW.

I use ERW mild steel for smaller platforms and anything bend and T45 for the struts/supports. I would use 4130 or T45 for everything but that would require a better bender.

It’s probably around 10mm erw that I have and I have one of those benders with 3 channels for different size tubes so will give it a go. I can get that erw stuff for buttons so if I mess up a couple bends it’s not the end of the world.

Update. I should have finished this thing but went cycling instead. Cycling is fun.

Did you go by Wanstead flats?

I was semi participating in my son's football club training session.
