Mystery road/path frame.
I just need some french threaded pedals, bb nipple, seatpost bolt and white cloth bartape to finish.
If I can find out who made the frame, i'll get it refinished in more period colours.

looks nice, but please rotate your bars slightly upwards.

it looks like it's sad.

Seeing that it's lost to the vortex of time...

Some new pics with new Kashimax and Nitto B123AA's.

And yes, my bar and stem is always set up like that.

Ugh... Waste of time and photoshop.

I rolled my champs grips off, turned them back the right way by rolling them back over a thin bar and used spray adhesive to get them back one my new bars.

Uhhh... Is that a repost on the same fucking page?

Isn't the bike builder Jordan Hufnagel?

Yes.

Keith Hufnagel (pro skater) runs HUF, the sneaker / t-shirt store in SF.

Completely different people.

not sure if this has been posted, but i am seriously loving this Company Alien bikes... loving this build and the Frame

It's not an Alien, it's a Tarini Firenza Conversion.

Repost this!

Nice Australian built Kenevans.

It's for sale.

I always thought with the british set up, turing across traffic, while negotiating a roundabout or even moving form the left hand side of the lane to the middle to make a right turn, the rider has more control with access to the weaker rear brake.

if you were turning right and had the front brake on the left and needed to stop while indicating, the power would turn your bars and cause a swerve action??

when turning left not so much an issue.... american set up is opposite due to driving on the other side of the road...

i got this idea from the fact most aussies do rear brake bmx set ups cause of this, right hand free at all time for signaling purpose, if ya ran a right hand brake and had to get to the right hand side of the road, be an issue stopping and signaling...

Stupdi question, but...

if you're riding fixed, why are you slowing down with your brake to turn a corner?

Robin Mather come to mind, as well as Hufnagel (US) and Carrion Cycle Works, that's as far as I know thought.

(Carrion Cycle Work stem/bar).

HOLY FUCKING SHIT!

What amazing way to ruin a beautiful bike. That bar and stem combo is horrible.

however, due to the fact that there are very few frames that size, and western people willing to pays lots of money for a big frame.... they really dont go for cheap.

Plus alot of Japanese (at least in my part of the country) dont ride Keirin frames, they ride Western Frames... Soma/Surly etc

I got a 56cm square Samson (with Columbus tubing) that was more than the 52 / 53 / 54cm frames in teh same shop. I had a little trouble getting a bigger frame, but big frames weren't any cheaper than smaller frames.

Yeah bud it's me- what's good? Just staying in touch with matters abroad?

Small world.

Got a few joints under my belt by now, but currently head bartender at crown and sceptre in Adelaide- nominated for bartender of the year this year (if I don't say so myself, thankyou very much =D)

Ah, a great pub I never seem to get to.

Is this Christian with the blue Makino? If so, this is Jolan with the silver Malvern Star with the black rear Aerospoke. We've met a few times.

you have a lot left to learn

Different strokes for different folks.

All I don't like is the stem. It's too short.

And I don't like flat bars either.

Sorry it's not matchy-matchy.

I like Aerospokes.

Oh yeah, what's your bike?

A few of us from our regular Tuesday Night Fixed are thinking of going to Japan early next year with our bikes. We'll more than likely staying in Tokyo. This will be the third time I have been to Tokyo, but the first with a bike.

A few questions... Anyone know of any people willing to show some Australian fixed gear guys around for a few days? And secondly, how do you go about staying a hotel and having a bike? I'm assuming you can't take it up to your room at night... I've never really travelled with a bike before

Thanks.

Samson: 45x17
Europa: 49x17
Malvern Star: 42x15

Mmmm, 80s futurist loveliness (the chainset)

I have the track version of that crankset.

The stem just needs to be a bit longer... and then there's nothing wrong with this bike.

Bar Angle: FAIL (should be pointing towards rear brake bridge).

Saddle bag: FAIL

Other than that....

New bike...

Oi! how about some advice then?

Go to Shibuya on a Friday night, count how many fixed's you see (front and rear Araya disc's anyone?). Tokyu Hands in Shibuya also has some sweet fixed parts too. Go to Dream Works, Sexon Super Peace, W-Base, Carnival, Blue Lug and Punch purely for bike porn viewing, especially the Cinelli tandem hanging on the wall in Carnival. Try and get to the Kawasaki Velodrome to watch a Keirin race (I think there's one near Ueno as well). Maybe get in touch with Tomity on here for times of races, cause when I went to one in Kyoto, I just saw them training.

Also, don't forget Thunder Dolphin at Tokyo Dome!

Never mind, I just emailled the guy that made these. Hopefully he can email me the file.
