Functional bikes. Not Porn not Anti

The Condor is just perfect.

What fork is it on the Condor? Custom?

Yes.

If you wanna read up on the build the idiocy starts here https://www.lfgss.com/conversations/311701/?offset=1950

Brake pads are original to the Frogglegs. I think they are Koolstop maybe.

Are they by any chance the ones you included when you sold me (at a bargainous price, thanks again) the Frogglegs? If so they are now on my mum's bike!

Your mum has a nice frame

Heh

Yes, was really pleased when I found it for her (I love a Dawes) Refurb job by Mario. I still need to get her nice mudguards, not that she'll be riding in the rain but these gaps need filling.

Yeah man! Nice Dawes 💙

Every time I see a Bridgestone I like it

That Bridgestone is peak BDHU aesthetic perfection.

Nope

I'm in the process of building a set of 27.5" wheels with some gravelkings sk and this post makes me want to put them on my 26er even more. My only fear is not being able to fit mudguards but seeing this makes hopeful

That Bridgestone needs some nice modern levers/ hoods instead of this uncomfy old shite.
Great bike though

Levers up too high or? I think it looks great.

Point of BDHU is not aesthetics it's a comfortable fit and correct use of bars and levers. That's not the case with that Bridgestone.
Bars are placed perfect but you can't reach the levers from the drops.

You've spent too little time browsing the blue lug flickr account then!
V nice bike though

Looks like the one from Ocean Air Cycles, nice like, but way more expensive than a Bagman. I think I saw one on Tokyo Bikes site and it was over £150! 😕 I quite like the idea of it mind

Made by nitto aren’t they?

I have though! I like being late to parties tho ;)

good build
