  • if i had any money that id be all over this.
    is building one of these kinda bikes as simple as just finding an old mtb or atb and just getting someone to change the dropouts?

  • i think it's pretty sweet. I have little or no taste. Or the money to build it up.

    Tempted to dibs though.

    How much does it cost for people to braze on track ends anyway

  • That is very cool.

  • How much does the frame weigh?

  • ..although I would have ground the rack bosses of the seatstay and filled them in too

  • Easy superjoe, yeah in my opinion converting an mtb can be a good route to a cheap Trick bike, especially if you got an old frame kicking around....

    Strong, low top tube for better tricks, high bb, out of fashion so often selling cheap! Perfect!

    Re-space and change dropouts. You will be limited to maximum chain ring size of about 38t for the right chain line, but with cog sizes down to 12t available - No problem even for speed.

    owenreed,

    Track ends about £80 up, but spend more and use a rated builder if converting a nice frame.....

    Was gonna drill the dropout and fit a rack for a transporter / baby carrier sort of thing, which is why the rack bosses are still there, but a better frame came along for that job...

    Transporter frame anyone?

  • You wanna swap the frame for anyhting?

  • What you got?

  • perfect polo frame

  • All dibbed up.

    Don't know to weather to build a fixed rear 26" with nobblies for offroad or slam 700 deep v's in it.

    "slam" fuk i sound like x-zibit

  • damn too slow.

    interested if the above dosen't go ahead.

    tah

    This is exactly how I built mine, converted MTB frame, 26" forks = Win as winter bike.

    what frame was that originally?

  • ^Something like the one being sold here, SCOTT though...
    Surly track ends brazed on.

  • what wheels are they?

  • what wheels are they?

    ?...Are you serious? Lol..

  • @nuknow

    more bike questions!

    are those bmx bars and what kind of stem is that? looking to do similar with a sunn mtb i picked up.

    looks awesome.

  • It is awesome, i was riding in snow...amazing.
    And cheap, stem is BMX (Savage), bars are BMX Felt.
    Forks Identiti Rebate (DJ Park) 26", rims SUNRingle MTX33, tires COnti T&C 1.9.
    Chainring is a BMX Snap 42t, drilled(ium).

  • Derail continued...
    I'm thinking of running 26's, but want some cheap ones, any idea where's the best place?

    Were you brakeless in the snow?
    Awesome.

  • ...at.about.0.5mph.
    Skid + ice* = instant faceplant (twice TBP).
    Fun nonetheless.

  • nuknow: ever thought of giving polo a try? :)

  • Afraid I might like it.
    Then I will definitely become single, and homeless.

  • I was staring at this thread for hours yesterday... hoping this frame to sell quickly.

  • ...and I'm becoming Edward the Scoble.
    ...no more photos of my shit.
    ;)
