Brooklyn Machine Works

I’m like 6”1 or summit and my long is up there ^

Short will be way too... short

Thanks for the help everyone

anyone know who’s got a long version geo gangsta for sale?

Is there any plans for BMW ride? Would be awesome for my v4 to meet some proper BMW’s 💯

Mine. Coolest bike to ride in my little collection !

anyone got a Large V4?
if so how tall are you?

I went for a medium and I'm 182cm

i have a large that i haven't built up yet,
im 186cm

I don't get to ride it in London as much as I'd like anymore, but my V3 is still my favourite bike.

I was tempted by the large but decided I'd try and make this one less roady and more BMXy

Ah sick sick !
Could I see a pic of yours for size?

It's still in South Carolina (at house of father-in-law). It was supposed to be on its way over with him in October but he's cancelled his trip now - no new date set...

Gonna be a slow build.

ah same same, mines in japan atm with a friend, hate the long wait

These are going of to the wheel builder today.

single speed set up?

Yep. And 2 brakes. Probably hydraulic.

Did you manage to re-space the rear?

sick thats cool man, hope to see the full build soon, i emailed mack and got him to make some track hubs, should be nice

I don't think I need to. The hub is 112mm OLD so I'm going to put chain tensioners - designed to be used outboard of the dropout - reversed, so inboard between the hub and dropout and take up the 8mm of space.

In my mind this works perfectly because hub stability can be shared between the hub locknut and the chain tensioners. We'll have to see if it works in practice.

I just bought the Brooklyn stem and seat collar. Absolute rip-off at $180 but thought it would be worthwhile in the long run.

where did you buy them from? did they have seatposts too?

Messerol.

Yeah they have seat posts but only in black

I’ll have a look, pricey tho, but I think it’ll get even more pricey in the future
