Hulsroy's Hustle

That colour is superb.

Thanks. Yeah I like it as well. RAL 6009.
I am gonna need something for myself in this colour as well

Looks like BRITISH racing green, you should pay UK VAT on that

It def isn't. That would be RAL 6005 and he didn't have that in matte/satin

Nice little tax loophole you found there

Brexshit is your own fault guys

LOL

I promised not to share until better photos has been taken. But I am super excited to see @Aderklint 's frame back from painters

ooh nice, you always nail the colours, that looks like itll be excellent

Thanks but I had very little say in this paint job 😃
But I do like that colour a lot. Reminds me of Ole Ritter's Benotto

Beautiful - is it RAL Pearl Maus grey ?

Think it is magic mixing Swedish style. Aderklint will probably provide info when he is ready to share.

Edit: it's sprayed not powder so don't think RAL works

Very nice. Another Hulsroy build to look forward to.

It's getting there

The bracket is for a Thule seat right? I was thinking of doing the same, but could't figure out if you could fit this to onto the spacers below your stem. Isn't it free to rotate that way?

There is a specific seat mount for 1 1/8" thread less. This is the 22.2" quill version - so I am actually using it wrong as I removed the v-spacers. It works fine as long as you use thin headset spacers. I made a brass one, which proved too short so ended up putting a ti spacer on there. There is two bolts on the Thule bracket I tighten once the headset is preloaded

Just need to sort mudguards tomorrow and shorten brake hoses at some point

Got some 5mm alu rods really cheap for the mum bike. So I am using the Velo Orange hardware I bought and saving time fabricating stuff. I think this is what I'll do in the future as well

This is great ! i think i'll buy this https://es.aliexpress.com/item/4000005526513.html?spm=a2g0o.cart.0.0.6c573c00sFRSVp&mp=1 for my partner to build a mumbike but i'm sure it will have much less character then your build

That looks alright. I bet it's made in the same factory as the Kona

Lovely that you spotted that.

I was indeed aiming at Pearl Maus Grau (RAL7048), but since the frame is wet painted, the workshop screwed up the pigment mixing slightly. In a very good way I'd say. The color is significantly warmer and lighter than 7048. I was surprised by the result, but am already loving it.

I'm toying with naming the thing "Desert Champagne"

Great name - rad colour !

New bag is perfect
