Add Simpleton to the "stick a fork in it" file...

Build here:
viewtopic.php?f=75&t=72350

It's been a rider since the end of May and I've just been out having fun with it ever since. I almost forgot that the build-off was ending this weekend and that I never put it in the finished bikes thread. :oops:

I could have done a lot more with it but everything just fell into place and worked well - so why mess with a good thing? :D
The only parts bought specifically for this bike were the fork, chainring, some spokes, and chain (and maybe the spare gold crank but I didn't use that) Everything else was stuff I had laying around or had purchased previously for unknown "future projects".

I had to run a few errands around town so I grabbed some pictures while I was out.

Let's start with the mandatory Train-In-The-Background shots that everybody here loves... :roll:

Kitty - tried to get the bike in the picture but the cat was having no part of that and left...

Last photo of bike and lion looks great.
 
Oury grips... the best aren't they?

Extra gold cranks you say? :mrgreen:

Sweet bike, looks like a smooth rider.
 
Excellent execution on this one and great photos too.
BRAVO!
