In 2012 I came across a few bits which I thought "that might be good for a beater build"
Anyway, all those parts I've built up, this is what I've came up with:
It's a 501 frame which I've put Campagnolo bearings in the headset and BB, cleaned and lubed properly, wheel dead straight and axles lubed. It looks pretty rough but it rides smoooooth. It will never get cleaned, just moving parts maintained.
I know it's not pretty and there should be parts I should have used, but I've scrapped the barrel of the parts bin. Hoping with this winter weather it'll start looking bit more of a shitter! The rear wheel is not final, going to use a bit more of a beater wheel, link me if you have one!
