In this photo it’s hard to tell if the bike is quite small or very tall. Something with the smaller front wheel vs the long head tube. Like an optical illusion or an impossible figure. I love it

Late start but very speedy progress! I always liked those triple triangle frames 😍

Further. Swing is finally secured. Upper part of fork legs are somewhat oval in transversal direction and lower legs are oval in longitudinal direction. -Why is this interesting or relevant? -Because that means it is only possible to slide lowers into uppers when lowers are rotated...

Some progress. To further secure the swing, I’ve added an inner rod (red one). The red rod has a perpendicular slot for the axle. When it’s in place, the yellow fork is slid forward, to engage the axle with its longitudinal slot. All parts are locked by an M8 screw. The hole through the inner...

I need to get something similar to that seatpost

I understand what you mean, it’s easy to get carrried away. But something just looks very appealing with the combination of the chromed ornament and the wonderful paint fade in this photo

The leather texture is just wonderful!

Stylish bike. And the saddle bag adds a nice touch

As the rust is getting more intense by the day, I’m rethinking my choice for color/patina and would like your opinions. Light rust, almost a golden brown Intense rust Blue (and rust) Green (and rust) Raw What do you think?

As some of you’ve seen, I’m participating in the Build Off 18. This is the build so far Now I’m rethinking my choice for color/patina and would like your opinions. Golden brown Brown Blue Green Steel

I didn’t expect you to be that fast! 😆 Wrote the text on the laptop and added photos from the phone afterwards

Friends, the swing is in place! The fork legs are still way too long, I didn't want to cut them until the swing was in its final position. I ground flat surfaces on the steerer to 1.) get it to fit into its square collar, and 2.) to help counteract unwanted longitudinal axis rotation. To get...

Hahaha! He just shakes his head (he’s used to my ideas). I promised to get him a new one. Good idea with the video. Hopefully I can finalize the swing and make a video during the week.

That is another smart solution. I get good ideas from this thread

I've been considering different rear suspension designs that meet these criteria: Appearance: Maintaining a smooth line from the top tube to the rear swing. Functionality: Creating a strong, secure, and movable joint between two round tubes (fork steerer and seat tube) within the limited...

This is next level stuff:inlove:

Either that, or a transparent mini jet-engine should do the trick. But I have to agree, it is a very cool bike. The design is very consistent throughout the tubes, making the lines flow beuatifully. I especially like the fork and the downward extending fork legs.

I LOVE this type of creativity. Looks like an abstract sculpture in the last pic.

Will definitely try that on a pair of all to bright and white new Kendas. They replaced lovely cream colored Panaracer Magic. Would like some NOS Magics but they cost an arm and a leg. Your technique rocks
