    ROS9 Plus (29+)

    Really was having a blast on my ROS9 and when this demo 29+ version came up on clearance couldn't resist. Opens up bikepacking and just all around simple fun. Came with Surly Knard tires which are OK but a big weakness in loose over hardpack conditions, just upgraded to Surly Dirt Wizards which...

    ROS9 SS Build

    The GT Peace 9R SS was getting a bit long in the tooth and I need some front suss(GT frame no good for suss forks, crown will hit downtube) for a nagging left hand injury, so I snagged the ROS9 frame off the bay, 142x12mm rear so got a new Hope Evo2 SS trials hub and laced into a Halo rim...

    CicloSDias Ride - San Diego

    Found out about this ride right before going via a text, San Diego's first CicloVia event where they close off 5+ miles of city streets to cars(short of a few controlled intersections). This event is called CicLAVia in LA and there's similar in other cities, a real good time if you see one...

    37 Schwinn Admiral - Klunker

    I've had this frame for 7 or 8 years, glad to finally build it up as a Klunker like I always wanted to. It's pretty fun except in rock gardens where having the need to rotate pedals and simultaneously back pedaling for braking demand a bit of planning, the geometry is also not conducive to...

    37 Schwinn Admiral - Klunker New YST Bottom Bracket

    Need to move some bikes out of the house, might as well build 3 pick one. Klunkers all, get rid of a bunch of 26" MTB parts etc in the process plus some donor bike parts. The Good The Bad(...) The Ugly Ugly may stay stripped as it has very bad pitting but it may get a textured or hammered...

    Purple Reign - A GT Dyno Moto Glide Klunk9r beach vid update

    Most fun build off so far since I didn't have to paint, started with what I think was a replacement GT Dyno Moto glide frame, no signs it was ever built up, a nice score on ebay think it was $25 IIRC no other bids from a fairly local guy. Got my money's worth out of the Dremel on this one...
