Rat Bikes! Pub Bikes Beaters! Frankenbikes!

I'm not a good fit for you, it would only end in tears.

u, er

Nothing wrong with a little man-on-man if you're so inclined... unless you're in Russia of course.

wow thats great

I actually bit my lip looking at that....

agreed! very very nice, expert use of expensive parts disguised as worn out crap. i presume the damage to the downtube was caused by some incredibly aggressive locking-up technique?

^thats cool. really like the frameset.

and my former frame, bought here 3 years ago from Hilary, now belongs to a female rider in Cracow, Poland

NDS fail. :(

What do you think about this? I got BLB BLT frameset real cheap,
but trick fork made cockpit too high and I didn't like the looks.
Now it has Concor with LV leather, will have mudguards and better
headset, cutted steerer, probably rack.
fyi it's black because of electrical tape and permanent marker.

erm.. You might be on the wrong thread, maybe current projects chat can help you out. And tbh your bike doesn't fit any of the thread's criterias. But that build is pretty nice, would get rid of the spacer stack though.

Plenty people post theirs in here, just depends on what you consider "criteria". This might be his daily beater.

Fair enough, I get that. All I'm saying is that in MY opinion his bike (compared to a lot of bikes on this thread) doesn't look as beaten down or as ratty. But this is only MY opinion, and the bike might be his daily beater.

This.

It's like saying you know it's not pretty but you like it.

these old track frames make me feel dirty.

In a good way?
