Hola,
in short:
I build a miniklunker and it is a lot of fun.
I used a shimano cb e110 and modified it to fit in a 135mm rear end. I could have build a 110mm rear end but wanted to have an option to but in a normal hub with disc brakes. (need to add disc tabs... or design them first to fit this rear and the horizontal movement to tension the chain xD)
Also tried a truss fork for the first time.
As I was showing this thing at bespoked Desden and did not have enough time to build the front wheel I wanted I end up using one lying around. As it has a hub dynamo I brazed a clamp to put a lights directly next to it.
I think in the end I had the cheapest build of the hole show. And I am kind of proud that this is the case. :D
Best
Tony
