Racks racks and frames

i've pm'd you

Happy to let you ride the Elin for a week ;-)

long time no update. had a bit practice in bicycle world, and coming back for racks.

will be making few racks for Surly straggler fork, bought in East central cycles market and for Salsa firestarter as custom racks, but for stock forks. Really don't like those adjusting things, so why not to make rack perfectly for specific fork model

and one crazy slow project of Parlee fork with custom fork mounts for my new roadie

also christmas for me came a bit later, found good deal for academy jig

little by little will have new frame, and hope for next year to learn a bit of framebuilding

Hey @togas any chance of getting one of these from you? Looks perfect for my needs.

Never managed to take a decent pic when travelling somewhere further than an office but here it is in all its dusty commuter glory. And it works good! I even managed to get my girlfriend home on it some Friday night. Amazing stuff @togas

Well this year got luck to make few frames already and stems! Todays work and my gravel bike before brevet type ride.

some more details? tubing, geo?

Good looking bike that!

tubing dedacciai zero uno with ceeway 35 mm downtube. bought those dropouts to take a look, but not the most beautiful one
still in raw, happy with patina coming slowly
there is plenty of clearance in front, and up to 2.5-2.6 clearance in back,hovewer max 34t chainring will fit. made a bit too much tyre clearance to say the true as will run only 2.4 tyres perhaps.
Geo, is 70.5 HT angle and 73.5 ST angle.
thinking to build small rando front rack and similar to T rack in rear
