I'd vote for the one you chose for the mockup. Very nice

I like the mock-up as well. Maybe experiment with fewer and thicker lines.

+1 on the above

I'll try some tingz re logo. Ta

The gusset is for the extra loads from a disc brake?

Cool stuff, little mods to give something a new life often are the most fun.

Dinner and a swim at the beach.
Living in flat in the city in the summer is tough on a kid. My daughter is sooo much easier to tuck in when we've gone out on a little adventure after daycare.

Next week she and I have the entire week to ourselves as daycare is out and mummy's gotta work.
I am wondering about taking her camping in our tent and trying to guesstimate how far we can ride in the cargo bike before she gets bored.

Only cook on a beach with a 2yo if you like sand in your food!

Yes. I got hit by a car some years ago and that left a small kink in the underside of the down tube. So the gussets is covering that and reinforcing the area now that the bike will have disc brakes and likely go a bit more off road. It has been fine without but I might as well since I am killing the paint

Who doesn't like sand in their food? Memories flooding back of cheese and sand sandwiches on Tenby beach.
You seem to be winning at this dad game!

Thanks Jon. I only post when parenting goes well :)

I spent today preparing for vacation.

Monday I start cycling to my parents house with my daughter on the cargo bike. It is a journey I can normally easily do in one day, but this time we are taking it slow. Day 1 we will do 64km, day 2 47km and day 3 60km. We will be riding along the Danish east coast with loads of stops and camping seaside.
I've bought my daughter a sleeping mat and will be modifying an old sleeping bag of mine for her. Yesterday we setup tent together and tonight I'll do a packing test of the bike. I can't wait ☺️

A crucial part in making our tour work is that cargo bike can be transported back home. I did a ghetto roof rack solution last year but today I took the time to do it properly.
I reused my cargo bike jig and added some different holding bits.

Almost done. Just need to make two more brackets for mounting on the roof rails

Just caught up with a year or so of this thread.

Amazing stuff as always.

You're a dream boat.

Great roof rack

Thanks 👍

Also managed my new stem. Still needs a bit of finishing and powder coating. But that will have to wait.

Me too, I just caught up with the last year of the thread.
Amazing work as always, even more because now I really want a bike (two, actually) from you.

Thanks man. Happy to put you on my list, but I am sad to say that my peanut size brain is slowly reaching the conclusion that frame building, parenting, social life and a full time job is not really doable.

This frame for example has taken a year to complete.
It is almost done but it is not what I expected it would be. I ended up not TIG welding it as it was just too difficult to get it looking pretty.
