I'm making the finishing touches on my simple bike.for daily use
I started with an old steel mtb frame and shaved everthing of i didnt need.
Upgraded the wheels from 26 inch 21 speed to 28 inch racewheels with a coaster brake hub in the rear.
Installed a old chrome racefork i had laying around.
Replaced the bracket with a betrer one and a chrome crankset
The frame in primer

Customize!
 
Kool color combo.. I've always love the black and blue color combo myself.. I've quit a few single speeds cruiser but sold them all. Keep up the good work.!!
 
Thanx! I was actually thinking of painting the framelugs white with a blue pinstripe to seperate the black from the white but i changed it to all black because i think its cleaner this way:)
But i think that im gonna put some white accents on the framelugs, bit i want to keep it as clean as possible..

My single speed recently fell and my forks got bent n the front rim also bent.
Ur bike looks good it's inspiring it makes me want to build myself another bike. It's simple but looks good.
