I've got some big plans for a big ripper build, plus a mini velo build from an old mtb also
That's a couple of great projects! I've been thinking about building a mini velo out of an old BMX bike. Probably not for this next build off but who knows.

I've been doing a lot of research on them, they're so cool. I really like the Velo Orange Neutrino but it's
, need to find a low budget alternative.
Several frame and fork options on AliExpress if you wanted to tryI've been doing a lot of research on them, they're so cool. I really like the Velo Orange Neutrino but it's
I think I may build one
Mini velo sounds interesting. I don’t know much about them. I assume you need a special frame?
I’m itching to get something started. I guess I can start dissembling and hunting for parts. I may have two entries for the ORBO.

I've been eye-balling those too. I also really dig the Bike Friday bikes, also spendy
We'll have to start a mini velo ideas thread. My idea so far is a touring style bike built from a BMX bike with derailleurs.
Sweet, that’s good stuff!
I have nothing else on my agenda, except food and naptime!

Yes, it's perfect for a klunker. The wheel set is a big part of the weight. They used the heaviest gauge of spokes in steel rims. You'll find a lot of weight savings there, but it still won't be lightweight.
Hehehe I'll just drop this off here. started life as a Kona Honzo
I have a monark built higgins that I'm seriously thinking about building in the ORBO.
Considering the lost time in the STBO/MBBO, We'll see if life things slow down to the point I can get it done. Then may consider a shelby middleweight for the skinny
I think it's a 52.
Have a red or a yellow 2 speed to pick from...

You inspired me. I just bought a bendix 2 speed on eBay. Was a reasonable price and I always wanted one. Will likely end up making a showing in the ORBO. Although I have a few other hubs to choose from.

I'm looking at a build more along the lines of a Moosegoose
