I'm kind of wanting to build some sort of fbnpna bike but not sure what. I'd also kind of like a rigid SSMTB. I wonder if I can make one bike that'll do both jobs.
I'm thinking disc brakes so sliding dropouts. I have a pair that might be old PMW ones or something. They have a hanger but unlikely I'll ever use it, I think at most I'd go 3 speed igh, I have a Nexus 3 speed disc hub that I could build into a wheel if I want to do this.
I'm also thinking front rack and maybe rear, mudguards, dynamo. Worried that loading it up with all this stuff is a pretty hard steer towards fbnpna and away from ssmtb though so anyone got any pics of bikes with all that kind of kit that still look like they'd handle some offroading that goes beyond champagne gravel?
Photos are of a couple bikes I've owned in the past that fit the bill.
