building fun bike in messy workroom

Azonic DS2 frame 16" w/ fork from Vitus VEE1. hope it will feel kind of like a 26" bmx type bike

(Midlife project No. n+1)

^ Nice choice.

How many wheels have you got in there?

too

;-)

nvrmnd

Nowt wrong with having a few spares :-)

ah the yellow vivalo, how things are shaping up on that end? saw the stem and risers here some time ago

hey man stop faffing around and show us more pictures of the project ! ! !

Safe fo sure, but it will be ridden. I test it today...

great to see another blue one

It's building up fine..Wheels will be truined at this week and it just missing few parts..Grips, chain, chainrings, saddle and then it's all most finished. Just need some more polish on some parts.

Storage rack and new group set for S2. Tilted angle looks a bit odd.

how do they stay up?

Dayummmm

rogan where is the alan?

pedal-holding wall hooks.

Really nice solution there - how high is your ceiling? Can you post some other pics of the shelves - I have some of those hooks and this seems like a nice way of using them... Do the shelves bear any weight?

When I saw that pic I thought FUCK why did I pull the trigger on Topeak Dual Touch! But then realized that I don't have as high ceilings and enough horizontal space to fit bikes

rogan where is the alan?

In my garage half done.

If it doesnt rain tonight im going to take it to lunar cycles as its open till 7, then i can pick it up in full working order, then I need to ride down to ryan at oak to ream the seat tube, then new seatpost and done

you said it would be done today. you said.

Storage rack and new group set for S2.

Strong stable.

There is third pedal hook and tyre bead behind the sofa for GFs bike. 3 bikes overlap equally from skirting board to soffit. Tyres rest on oak beading from Leylands to stop light bikes sliding at the front tyre.

:( i know but i couldnt get out of bed before 8.30 yesterday or today so it didnt happen

^ what would you recommend for a space like this:

I have 3 bikes, 1 road bike, 1 commuter (Fixed/ss) 1 mixte bike

[strike]Pair of hooks around the saddle for each bike - so they point out from the wall would be my advice (and what I have at home)[/strike]
ah, sofa in the way, nm!

^ also I have bought Topeak Dual touch to go in the corner where the table is atm but if there is a better solution I can always return it (havent got the delivery yet).

Reasons I went for it were:

1. Easy install
   
2. possibility of stacking 4 bikes
   
3. Can take with me when/if I leave the place
   
   

Any suggestions with/without topeak dual touch?

move the sofa to romantically face the fireplace, hang bikes on that wall?

^ not enough space in front, will block kitchen/bedroom door
