Don't judge my photography, i know it's shit.

Just received this aende lo pro and wacked on bits from my mongoose maurice to see what it looks like. I was thinking of building it up with:

polished H+son rear wheel
silver front (H+too expensive...)
Mavic bullhorns

but the rest is hazy... any suggestions on the other parts would be appreciated.

Ugh, reader's wives.

anti porn.

gone from

to

what dya think? a black seatpost which fits is on the to do list!

cut the coke can down

not much of a change though is it

does anybody know anything about puch pacemaker frames? good, bad?
starting my first project :)

I like it, reminds me of my bike. Personal preference on the seatpost though, its not too much of a problem.

So the bike is Finally together* and Im super happy with it for my first fix build. Seems tight, got the chainline nice and the rear wheel tucked, Cant do anymore with the front but happy for now just want to get out riding it.

*Nearly, As apparently the guys selling frames dont realise that seat bolts for internal mounts are necessary :( Hurry up postman.

Any feed back would be awesome guys,thanks

needs foot retention

Well done on changing the bars...................

also i that blue frame a norco spade? it is yes i saw the dropout

cheers guys, changed more than the bars, started as a bare frame from ebay, repainted then built as well as i can afford right now with parts i had and what i could afford, And yes hopefully getting straps over the weekend :) just want to ride it now

Any feed back would be awesome guys,thanks

Half link the wrong way round?

needs brakks & strapz.

and white tyres!

it needs a front break and/or toe clips. having neither is mental! and white tyres are vile!

toe straps coming ASAp and no breaks thanks, used to ride brakeless bmx so used to it. And no white tyres either

Half link the wrong way round?

Nope! used to struggle when i used them on bmx but now they come with arrows showing you :)

no breaks thanks

It seems to me no coincidence that the inability to spell brakes and the unwillingness to fit them to road bikes often occur together - do you have to be mentally retarded to start with, or are both symptoms connected with the knocks to the head which are a common feature of playing among 2 ton tin boxes which can stop suddenly in front of the rider?

funniest thing I've read in a while.

Tell me, how did you used to stop on a brakkless BMX?

And how fast do you think you were going?

I think thats true, although rushing to type things could also be part of it........or just retardedness Im guessing :)

Used to be able to stop albeit with a foot from quite fast,I know its different completly but it almost feels the same

this is cool yet also hurts my eyes

Of course it feels the same, it got two triangle and a pair of fucking wheels!

Yeah try slowing down using your foot on the wheel on fixed...

...get someone to film it...

... or just fit a brake till you learn the skills.

why all the hate guys?
