The starting point was a Felt Haribo frame with parts that are or look like heavy duty parts:

The frame, rack, fork, handlebars, fenders, chainguard are all stripped to raw metal. I installed BB adaptors to accomodate the dual crankset (Thun Aero Coronado) and combined it with the "heavy duty" Shimano 3 speed hub. The grip shifters were reworked to function as stick shifers. It runs on 24x3.0 Berm Master tires, Felt rims. A Brooks B190 suspension seat, which is their "heavy duty" seat, Exustar BMX pedals.

'Heavy Duty' is right! You really carried your theme through on this build in every way. Well done! :41:
 
Great and fun build to follow. I dig the industrial vibe of all the pieces to this cool puzzle!
Excellent build!
CONGRATS!
