Hulsroy's Hustle

Here you go:

Wooden block needs to be swapped out to fit the chainstay. In this example photo it doesn't fit.

The dimple profile could be different as well. I just reused what I had already made. Might buy and mod more G clamps.

Mounting the frame in a vise allows me to use both hands for crimping and the cordless drill makes it easy and fast to do.
Remember a dummy axle in the rear dropouts when doing it

If this is just the forks, I cant wait too see the rest

Ah ok thanks! Also the tip for using a dummy axle - for sure I wouldn’t do this in the first try

@Maj 's bike is coming together

Love the headtube

You're a wizard

Uf, makes me want a Hulsroy myself

Nice!
Will you keep the TT/ST junction like this?
I think it might be a good evolution of/addition to your signature style. Tiny half circle from the back must look great.

@spotter ta babe

@PhilDAS yes

@MisterMikkel this can be arranged. But they are mega expensive. Consider yourself warned

@c.h.e this is how I always do it when the top tube is larger diameter than the seat tube aka. Artisanal Squeeze™.
But because @Maj hates wishbones she gets the CAAD10 variety (like on my daughter's atb), where the seat stays flow into the ovalised toptube. I've done this on a number of bikes in the past as well.

Artisanal Squeeze™.

I saw them play at Brixton academy once.
Build is looking tops as always.

Alignment check done.. Seatstays and full fillets tomorrow. Tuesday braze ons and sanding

I have made some headset placeholders out of nylon. I really should have done that years ago.

Frame is here shown with 29x2.0" but its designed for 26x2.4" obviously

I’ve said it before but it deserves repeating - the forks are absolute 🔥

Thanks man. I am really pleased about them. Might do a little batch of the at some point.

I managed to sneak in a little road ride this weekend as well. I like ve my kids, but them going away for a weekend once in awhile is not horrible either :)

The proportions with the straight headtube are absolutely spot on

Thx man

Dreamy roads. Roads like that could convince me to get back on my road bike.
P.S. The bike is quite nice too ;)

I better start saving up then

Monday

First pictures looks like you are using a bike frame to drown a large snake.

Haha it's such a disgusting setup. I found some white 26" tyres in the attic. Seeing if they'll clean up if I soak them overnight. Trying to convince @Maj that they are a great look for her new bike

Could Master Hulsroy check his personal messages?

On which platform sorry? I can't see a pm on here
