Thanks @Tijmen for this awesome framebag. Both fit and build quality are top notch!

For another project I bought these Middleburn RS1 cranks. They have a 130mm road spider fitted. Seeing as these are early 1990's cranks, I am guessing they were meant to be used with a double chainring setup. What I don't understand is why there isn't a raised edge for the big ring, like there is for the small one on the back. Or should the spider go on the other way around (this would suggest not)? Or could this be for a single chainring only?

Dibs. What’s tyre clearance on the rear?

Can’t remember but it’s not massive.

Got the seat post (mostly) out of the Serotta built glider I got cheap off here. Annoyingly, there's like an inch left of it that has slipped down in the tube and is impossible to get out, think it's going to stay..

Need some forks, I think they came with columbus tusks originally. I've never bought forks though, are there any pitfalls to avoid? Ta!

Cool dropouts

Just finished this for my dad, so he can ride on tow paths and foresty trails with his pals

That’s a humble brag bike right there, I like it.

I'm personally not a fan of the colour, but the rest is extremely well done, congrats! I hope one day I'll be able to build such a rad machine for my dad, although he's a die hard roadie...

That's great! What frame is it?

A Scott Summit, which @Hulsroy kindly put a disc tab on for me, with Kona forks. It used to look like this:

Following on with the Aurum painted theme, finished this build on Sunday for the gf. Her first mtb. RAL4011 powdercoated BrandX hardtail with a mix of parts I had/collected for a while.

Nice, hope she likes it. Also props for the Berlingo.

Rad build, hope your dad likes it!

Nice bike and cat. :) The stem is especially really cool.

amazing

Thanks : )

A second Charlie Olga! Beautiful.
