Thanks! Good to see my bikes on the best thread :)

I have a ongoing project to shoot photos of some Helsinki ratbikes:

Phenom 143mm, have it on all of my bikes.

He's from Helsinki and he made the bag himself. And the fork is original steamroller fork with welded disc brake mounts, there's a lot of rollers with these here - thinking about doing the same thing, winter is coming...

Here's my steamroller from pre-event ride Hamburg - Copenhagen


and race mode ;)

Hah, my steamroller, yea the stickergame is a bit over the top ;) at some point it just got out of hand. Good bike, really dig the rack, been using cetma and a couple of weeks back put that TCB one on.

Yes, it's drilled. But yea, if you have no probs with the v brake, go for it.

Hi, I had Paul minimoto brakes on the bike and got tired of the squeaking, I did all the tricks, it worked for a while and started again. So I went for the caliper brakes, I have the 57mm reach shimanos and had to file the brakes a bit to make work. So if you don't want to do that, go for a even longer reach. This frame is from the first batch, spring 2015 - I'm not sure what they have changed for the 2016.

Yea, the xxl is 30mm longer, I have also 110mm stem and 170 crankset on mine. But I have long arms and legs...

I have the XL (top tube 570) 2015 and I'm 179cm. Photo of my current setup:

My bike, 28mm tyres. 2001 steamroller, it was repainted by the previous owner. Great bike, due to shorter fork it's a bit more aggressive than the new version.

My gangsta V1 in monstercross mode, more fun less serious. Ordered the shorter fork from BMW, interesting to see how it works (going back to street setup with it).

Yes, V2 Launchpad with V1 gangsta fork

I have bit different setup now, changed to spd pedals. Now it's 77cm.

Really nice frame, great that it's one of the early ones. I have had a couple of these, first one was a small 40cm frame (it was supposed to be a 46). It was very poorly painted black, I had it powder coated and added decals.

Now I have only the orange one left. Great bike and the color is amazing, it seems to get brighter as it get darker.

...but if we're being anal, I'd take off the rim stickers.

I agree and understand your comments, especially in this thread. Let's see, maybe I'll loose the stickers tomorrow ;)

Whose is it?

Textbook LFGSS build... Just lackss ATACs and bar ends.

Hi guys, my everyday all-round bike. Chain is KMC 710sl, it's ok in my opinion, I normally use the KMC 510HX. Valves are different lengths, just had these at home when I changed the tyres ;) Pretty happy with the normal gators, had both normal and hardshells in the past. LIghts are shit, but just lights, so I don't care so much. Anyways, I had all kinds of bikes, but this one is the one for me - great frame!

Thanks, I sold the ESB and changed parts to this. Only reason was that I wanted more tyre clearance and now I can fit 29er tires. I had 45c Fire Cross tires on the ESB and had to show knife to side knobs and it was still very tight.

Hi, photo from All-City after todays ride, great fun!

Hi guys, my esb, been riding it a lot past days. We have lots of snow here in Helsinki. I've a studded front tyre on my gangsta for icy roads, but fire crosses on this are great for snow. Didn't actually buy this for winter bike, but wanted to try it out. I'm liking it more and more, did a nearly 3 hours ride in our central park this weekend -18 deg. Great bike and I really like the raw frame.

I've had Kenda slant six 35's and now Panaracer cinder x 35's, both have good clearance in my opinion. I think that V2 has more clearance than OG, though I've only had 28c on that. I had first the original fork, but then changed it to Easton EC70 x.

Here's a link to pics with different setups:
