MOROZ winter project

[siberian]

let's start.
siberian winter is long and i have many time for making my new bike. i hope this will be fast and lightweight cruiser for my everyday use.
for this project i buy Hawk classic frame (searching for a long time) from Germany.
today frame is here and i can start.

frame is from Al, but fork is from steel, weight equal, maybe fork is heavier)

more to come....

I've always admired the Hawk bikes. Anxious to see what you do with this one.

 

[Dr. Tankenstein]

I've always liked the 'bullet proof' look of the Hawk bikes. Especially the forks/truss rods. They lend themselves to the boardtracker style.

Can't wait to see what you do with yours.

Too cool fork for a boardtracker project.
24" tires?
Keep us updated.

initially thought to put Felt abraham springer, but springer is out of stock, maybe it's for the best)))
maximum rim-tire size for this frame is 70 mm wide, i bought Felt 26" 50 mm rims and 346 slick tires, together about 65 mm wide.
bike will be with old look and modern components, 3speed shimano nexus with roller brakes, bottom bracket with sealed bearings, 3-pieces bmx cranks etc.
i have 2 handlebars for different styles, can't choose who's better)

pictures coming soon)))

looks cool, I look forward to seeing what you have planed for this bike.
And for some reason I thought it was always winter in Siberia.
