Planet X kaffenback - Touring / Cross

Just with friends!

Today i recived the chinese forks, and I decided to throw on some disgusting green paint on everything so I can start to build up the bike soon :)

I also cut off one cable guide, this bike will always be 1x10 or 1x11.

Bangin'

This is possibly the first competitive post in this thread.

The chinese fork turned out to be a banger, tight and nice with the same bb drop as i have on my old roadbike, WIN ! search contunes for a nice CX fork, but still i got use for this one.

I put some stickers on the frame before clearcoating it, my friends bikestore and fistasthlm logos.

This is the pedals i will use, Time atac XC8.

And now the best, start fitting components !

stay tuned! :)

holy shit looks so rad.
i want fista stickers

I got a stockholm mix stickerpack i will send you soon :)

it feels good to finally post these pictures on the bike, I've had them in my head for some time before I ordered the frame haha.

My G!
it looks crazy good. very jealous of your workshop space man

Damn dude, every bike you touch turns into something that looks awesome and wants to be ridden. Keep up the good work!

thanks guys! the best i know is (at least try) to build rad shit with much love on a low budget.

I am also waiting for a used 32h black open pro rim from a colleague, then i will relace the rearwheel and throw away the heavy bullshit rim.

Yes! I had a shitty old mtb that I painted roughly this colour a few years back, I painted over it with a british racing green, makes me wish I'd left it. Looks great!

That is a damn fine looking bike

Love it, nice work man

thanks guys!

did some work today to, swapped stem and saddle, mounted brakes, chain and pedals.

tryed it for a breaksless ride just to feel the size and it feels awesome.

Picked up this frame today.. hmm maybe riser and 1x10 + V brakes, Dunno :S

yes

This is sick! Good work man.

Can I have your bike life please? Ridiculous

This thread is making me want to sack off buying a genesis and doing the exact same thing with a kaffenback and carbon fork... Mannnnnn

whoa rly nice projects! First I was ehhhh for repaint but turned out better than the original. Good job man!

thanks guys! will do the last stuff on saturday :)

Whoa... that green... and that Focus!!!!

is this done yet then?

I says a direct swap from the Felt, hopefully a lots lighter too.

that thing looks fun
