Functional bikes. Not Porn not Anti

Belonging to @Eeyorecore

fuck having to replace cables.

I've heard replacing batteries is a doddle. Especially when they're in the seat tube

Also, not enough zits.

That LKLM does look like a teenager on hangover diet.
Unfortunately they don't seem to have the step-thru on their ebay store, but the other frames do not cost a lot of money, so might be worth the punt, if you can find the step-thru.

Some minor wrenching done on the prettiest bike I don't ride enough

Functional commuter/tourer

Nice Pelago!
Is that 650b wheels? And if so, how wide are the mudguards you have on there?

nice yellow.

Thx! They're 38x700c and 50mm Gilles Berthoud mudguards. I wouldn't try fit any wider without crimping.

Rack system looks mint. What is it?

Thanks!
It's nice to know, that you can 50mm guards - I find the 45mm VO guards do not provide the best coverage.
I'm thinking of converting mine to 650Bx48mm and but I'm unsure whether I can get some proper guards to fit - it would probably have to be VO Zeppelin or Wavy.

I reckon here you have 60mm 650b Berthouds with 48mm tires. Looks good imo.

Very nice of you to dig that up!
It looks really good and it's making me feel good about sizing down the wheels on mine! Custom polished bits are a nice touch as well

It's Pelago commuter with custom made legs. Nowadays Pelago actually sells also Lowrider Pannier Support, which is quite close to the ones I have. But basically you have to buy both Pelago commuter rack + pannier support.

They are indeed! I also polished same Ritchey Evomax in my Pelago and it turned out nice.

I have the mudguards too, but lost the rear bridge bracket... Hope it still qualifies tho.

+1 for Ritchey Evomax - mine are just stock black, which I think works well with the silver cockpit on mine.

This looks grand - what frame is it?

Rad! Which frame is this? Disc conversion?

It's the first Pelago Stavanger with disc brakes, 2013 I guess. Compared to its current iteration also the frame is lugged, there's no seatclamp and less slope in the top tube and the yellow is darker.

I have no idea, but details and are nice, as well the original (?) metal flake paint job - and yes, it is converted, PM mounts were welded by the previous owner.

Cheers : )
Didn't know about them.

Put the gravelking sk from my tourer(which is currently sat idle) onto allotment bike.
It almost qualifies as a wankbrid but felt this thread more appropriate. Those tyres are a bit of a squeeze compared to the bonjons that it normally has.
It also has a mk1 bob trailer for carrying tools n plants.

Late 90s GT Legacy hybrid frame, deore 1x10, onza grips, v6 pedals etc.
Needs blingy machined brakes tho.
