  • I've finally gotten around to amassing enough parts that I can sell this as a full bike.

    Started life as a bmx, now its some sort of Minivelo tank monster.

    20" wheels, coaster brake on the rear, u-brake up front. There are no brake mounts on the frame other than an anchor point for the coaster torque arm. I could braze some on if you'd like to have the option of using rim brakes.

    Spec as follows,

    Custom frame with integrated headset and mid bb shell
    Affix forks
    Skyway front wheel
    HiStop coaster brake on unbranded rim rear wheel
    Animal TWWR front tyre/Schwalbe Black Jack rear tyre
    Primo Powerbite cranks
    Fly Bikes sprocket/bashguard
    AD990 front brake
    Attila Frontin' stem
    Mirage Crossbar handlebar
    Funn lock on grips
    Blank brake lever/Animal linear cable
    Wellgo DX style sealed bearing flat pedals
    KMC 510 chain

    Definitely not a weight weenie bike!

    Downtube is drilled and fitted with Di2 grommets should you wish to run a dynamo cable through there as I did.

    Inside all tubes coated with Dinitrol rust preventative oil, outside has been linseed oiled but plenty patina (rust) showing through. The tubes are all heavy duty enough that corrosion on the outside of the frame shouldn't really be an issue and it's protected inside.

    Riding position is pretty normal, I'm 6'2 and its set up for me in the photos. My legs aren't very long and there's room to drop the saddle by several inches, bars could be pulled back/pushed forward a bit too.

    There are mounts on the frame for mudguards, the fork does not have any but I could add these for you, could also do a disc brake tab on the fork if you'd like... just ask.

    Asking £275 posted to you (bike is in Glasgow) and inclusive of PayPal fees.

  • Outstanding construction.

  • Primo powerbites!! Haven’t heard that name in a loong time.

  • Sorely tempted if it’s still around at the end of the month

  • Bonkers bike. Looks like a riot to ride

  • Claiming artistic license

  • This bike is fucking excellent.

  • Cheers all.

    I’d love to keep it but need to make some space in my garage/workshop and I also have it’s counterpart...

  • Amazing. Potts modded for bar spinz also. Rad.

  • i've seen worse

    i'd still like some accountability as to where the fuck ', no?' came from

  • came from

    I think this one might have Gaelic roots, when I read it I always think of a Frenchman shrugging .. maybe its because I am a Francophile.

  • you're right, but why has it taken hold here? nobody speaks like that

  • Is this still available?
