    All custom made from scratch! Frame, rack, fenders, forks, truss rods, headlight, all made 23-24% larger than a stock 26" bike. The rims are laced to New Departure hubs, with Hookworm tires.

    What are YOU building? Wrong answers only.

    I’m finally getting around to refurbishing my Grandma’s old bike - it’s a civil war model- very rare! It’s an Iver Schwuffman motorkrate β€œMusclePlane” model.
