Brooklyn Machine Works

lovely, thanks a lot.

can anyone recommend me a headset for a v2? headset that came with my frame is super gritty and i can't find any markings on the bearings.

any BMX headset will do the trick.

All together now.. "What are those forks?"

What are those ramps for? I can only assume wheelchairs, but I can't see anyone being pushed up or down them while in the chair, let alone pushing themselves up/down. Maybe for pushing a bike up, but that wouldn't need two and the one next to the wall would be no good for bar/wall clearance. Maybe pushing an empty wheelchair, but what does the chair's occupant do?

The more I look at it, the more baffled I am.

Seen load of them when I was in Copenhagen, mainly bicycle I suspect.

children's push chair too

Ah, that makes more sense.

Ah good point, I forget those little human exist.

I've sorted the saddle angle and the slack chain.

Still working on the front end hence the silver spacers.

Sick TM angle

Any V2's in Long for sale anywhere????
Used or new doesn't matter...

Good work, beach. Looks great in white. Good rims too!
Also, congratulations on finding a road caliper with long enough reach. I've opted to have canti bosses brazed on by the lovely, Matt (coldharbour) at Talbot.
Hope to pick them up tomorrow!

I have a long drop road caliper in the garage that was on my V1 before it was trashed.

PM if you want it..

^ How did you fitted that caliper on V1?

Thanks.

Got a Shimano R650 which just seem to fit. Canti's will be nice :)

Status Update: I'm in love.

Knew you'd come around :)

What tyres have you got on it?

Any news about the forks?

Re-emailed, waiting for reply

Nothing special, just some 25c Armadillos for now. Definitely tempted by some little cross tyres for if-and-when the weather gets bad.

Ah you'll have proper fun if you get 35c on there, something like schwalbe kojacks are still faster than most winter 23s imo and whole lot more fun.

Quick question for the Gangsta owners, where can I find something similar but that is not quite as heavy.

Been checking out the Goldsprint frames as they have similar slack/road geo as the Gangsta, clearance for tyres etc.

Any ideas?

On one pompano or any sscx frame should be fine.
