Have this pre-war Elgin frame that the top tube was cut out of. I wanted to try my hand at brazing so I rolled a new tube and welded it in. I made cable guides our old jockey wheel bushings from broken derailleurs and put some canti bosses on the back. Custom seat post was made from some 4130 scraps I had because the seat tube is 5/8 I wanted to make something robust. The rest is parts bin parts, used the original crank with a triple chain ring off a huffy I think. Came out pretty cool. It is stretched out but a small frame. Enjoy.
