Some months ago a friend of mine asked me to start thinking about a steel track bike for him. We started to think about colors and components...
...but the first think to make was the geometry of the frame and than the frame itself.
here you can see the frame "ready"
and some of the components for the bike
than i started to prepare it for the paintjob
and than i had to wait for a sunny day to make the color. I always like to see the color with the sunlight.
After finishing the paintjob i started to make a few homemade tools.
and some of Boards of Canada albums later...
it's not finished yet
i must polish the stem
i also have to apply the bartape (similar to the saddle)
i'll try to take a few pics of the full bike after i finish it
than i'll share it here ;-)
