I think this belongs here..

Mate's rat:

that gazelle!

I think this belongs here..

The description kind of rules:

Not really a hotrod bike, but the buffed out tyres to make slicks might save it...
Handmade aero-bars and pursuit bars from a bit of old pool fence and some 100mm PVC pipe.

Potential...

Freewheel with one brake>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Other than that, rad as fuck.

Love that Peugeot, FG on CX tyres must be weird though.

It's lovely.

Yup. really really fun.

My beater. Still few changes needs to be done (want different chainring + BB).
Love it, seriously...Makino is crying for a week in my hallway.
Excuse shitty pics...

Dibs on the frameset if you sell :)

57x57

Not original fork.

But still beauty!

I think he wants it for his fiancé.

needs 7/8 speed with downtube shifters, keept the risers

Very nice.

Are you not tempted to put gears on it? Maybe a 1x10 setup with risers and a rack?

Message scott RE the saddlebag - think the going rate is £120? Worth every penny, holds LOADS.

How-to tutorial

My beater.

beater somec? dooby pls.. sell it to apollo to do something nice with it, trashing a frame like that as a beater is a shame..

Ehm, i'm not really beating it. Paintjob is way too sexy to do it. It's just cheaper frame with cheaper parts which I don't mind leaving locked for few hours...

I know you guys hate me for not building it as it should be build, but don't worry, I'll get bored of it in a few weeks/months time and pass it on...
