Not sure if this is the appropriate thread, but I did ride this today on a dirt road. I'm thinking I'll use it as the world's silliest bike packing rig, fortunately it's quite flat where I live.

I visited the Worksman factory around Christmas and they very kindly showed me around and sold me this Chrome frame. They told me this is the last one and they aren't making any more.

I also just realized I put the seat assembly on backwards, lol.

Rad! Do you have more pictures of the bike?

Well I think @J-Shooter has just won the thread with that kick-ass klunker!

A couple more pictures of mine below from back when I initially built it up last year. A few changes since, namely now singlespeed, replaced dropper with Enve layback, shorter Burgtec stem and different crankset, but the bones are there...

Think I've asked this before but, oval rings on singlespeed bikes, does it work as bad as it looks?

Works good

Works goodly then, that's me told.
I guess the difference in chain tension isn't enough to derail it on the rough stuff.

I've never used an oval chainring but I don't think there is any difference in chain tension - half the teeth on the chainring are engaged with the chain at a time whether the chainring is oval or round.

Wonky ring

Yes! MK5 or Scrambler?

Scrambler, but alas now geared

1996 kilauea with new track dropouts

Bloody lovely that.

Bike homeopathy seems popular though, even without gears

Soft tail?

Yup, it's using a 'flex plate' yoke

I can see me forever removing mud from that ^

What, and not take full advantage of Titanium®'s No-Corrode™ properties?

I can see me forever rewelding that ^

wow, pretty cool until it cracks

Right up until it snaps.

Yeah until it breaks
LOL

Guys, titanium is for life!
