Here's my current project. I started to build a new frame jig.

200€?

fancy building me something?

Ok then, maybe 220€:D Frame is made of old recycled bicycles and some left over columbus cromor and chromoly tubes. Hubs and rims I picked up from dumpster. Spokes I got from local bike shop for free. Only new parts I had to buy was tyres and saddle. It took lots of working hours to get bike to that stage and obviously I didn't count price for my own work.

^That's my budget 29er and yes, it's fixed at the moment. Whole bike cost me about 200€ (frame,paint+parts). I'm going to upgrade some of the parts as soon as I get money for that. I've been looking WI ENO cranks if I could find them from somewhere for a reasonable price.

Just finished my 29er.

More pics here.

^^^Nice work Hulsroy!

Here's my beater:

Because disc brakes. Forward facing dropouts keeps the wheel better in place when braking.

Konga are you based in the UK or abroad?
I live in Finland.

My 29er is almost ready for paint. I made a new seat mast clamp and fork. Still need to braze disc brake mount to fork and file some joints.

Nice to see it finished Konga, it really is a lovely bike and those colours really compliment it well, nice and simple.

Thanks!

Did you spray it yourself?
Yes, I used 2-component paint.

At last I found some time to take new pics of my Rata (track) -bike:

More pics here.

Konga - I've always wanted to try a cargo bike, they look like so much fun to ride, especially if you have a mate in the front on a drunken ride back from the pub! :D

As per usual, you're doing something really interesting, love to see this built up.

Will the cargo bed be ok like that without some diagonal supports from main frame?

Cargo bed isn't brazed to the frame yet and I'm going to add some supports eventually.

Here's one shot from the first test run before I started to make cargo bed/box:

My 29er is almost ready so I started a new project; cargo bike:)

Love the look of it.

Geos a bit steep for my taste. But if pic location is anything to go by, then its probably a blast.

Are you going to put a disc brake on that radial laced front?

Thanks!

Ht is 71° and st 73°.

I borrowed that radial wheel from my other bike and I'm going to build new wheels for this one as soon as I get new rims.

Here's some detail shots from the bike. KLICK

looks awesome, really
home-made, custom-made frame?

Home-made.

Thats some shot from the test run and yes it's fixed. Built that up on weekend and it's still work-in-progress. Disc brakes coming, better crankset etc.

Konga, that does look very nice, loving the straight tapered forks with it too, although they do seem a mite slim!

So, where did you source the materials?

Know the last project was an old MTB, wasn't it?

But the tubes and dropouts on this look too clean to be transplants, the brazing is nice and very neat, the tubing looks well thought out and proportioned, all together a very different beast from the last one we saw!

De-sticker the rims, for that ultra clean, stripped down naked look and that really is something special, and it looks like its my size too! ;)

Some more pics of the stays and with the head tube straight on would be appreciated mate.

Thanks. I'm thinking carbon fork...

Tubes are new ones (Columbus Zona). Here you can find more info and pics about project: click and click (only in finnish, sorry).

^ cool bike ;)

Looks awesome so far, but need proper DS pics.

So fucking sexy, needs moar info/pics
