Functional bikes. Not Porn not Anti

Arh yes. I remember that Scott. Cool replacement.
Now I feel bad for dissing the rack :)

Thank you, happy about it too. No problem about dissing the rack :)

Tektro canti's were great

Controversial

I should probably point out they were TRP EuroX.

Edit: so not that great but they looked cool. 😆

looked cool

Points there. I love how my CX-70's look

That Sweet pea is 👌

Old school mountainbikes are the best. Would really like a Rockhopper.

Yeah, it's lovely. Made all the better by the fact it's actually my dad's bike from the late 80s

Nice bikes from Cycles Rouge Gorge

Flat bar’d the pack rat. Rides well. Plans afoot for 1x and then mudguards back on for winter.

Looks fun!

Love it, keep it 2x.

I’m on the fence. It’s a bit overgeared for the type of riding I realistically do on it. A smaller outer chainring would sort that, but I have the parts for an 11speed deore 1x setup with a downtube shifter. In my mind it would be simpler, but I’m not really sure that is the case.

My daily

(to be fair I only had the Carradice on because I had to bring it from A to B)

So cool. Was it easy enough to fit the backpedal brake to that frame? Did you have to build a custom rear wheel? Always wanted a retro mtb but could never really justify it, after seeing this I'm wondering if I replace my opafiets with something like yours.

Perfect.

Thanks!

Installing a coaster brake is pretty easy I'd say. I used a Shimano CB-E110 coaster hub, which has 110 mm spacing. You can take the hub apart pretty easily and add spacers to make it fit a frame up to 130 mm rear spacing without having to change the whole axle for a longer one (changing the whole axle is not very hard, the hard thing is finding a longer axle).

Anyway, for this build I chose to space out the wheel symmetrically, because it seemed easier at the time. However, this causes the chainline to be pretty fucked, which is why I used alu spacers to bring in the chainring up front by 5 mm. I haven't measured but I'd say the chainline is pretty good right now. You could also space the hub in such a way that the chainline will be better, but then you'd have to dish the wheel to make up for the asymmetric spacing.

Wheel specs: Dartmoor Shield 26" downhill rims, Shimano CB-E110 coaster hub on the rear and Shimano DH-C3000-3N-NT on the front, both laced with DT Swiss Alpine III spokes.

Bloody good. I might build a stationsfiets like this next year. Love the idea of a coaster brake retro MTB.

The way I like it. A very nice built. Well done!

Hey buurman, thanks!

Is the pink MTB with rack that's parked elsewhere in the street yours?

Hey buur, no it isn't.
Four bikes are stored in my house and my commuter is safely parked in the Balistalling (indoor-bikeparking). I think it is the cheapest parking or one of the cheapest in whole of Amsterdam. Only €7.50 a month.
Btw, I should post some of my bikes here on the forum. Never done it ;-)
