74 Ross Compact

Good looking ride. Love the way this one turned out. I always like to see folks working with Ross bikes; they were all over the place where I grew up on LI, but I don't see them too much anymore.

Also: your license plate has me thinking about ways to decorate the unused brake bridge on my build-off bike.

Thanks!!!

The brake bridge was kinda beat up looking. So I had to do something

I’m very happy with it now. I can climb hills much easier now that I can raise the seat up. Did a easy 8 miles today. I’ll call this a successful build.

Here she is in action. Blinky lights, phone holder and water bottle.

Buddy of mine took a few artsy pics of it

Thank you! I’m keeping my eyes open for another one. I passed on a 5 speed a while back and regret it. I’m sure one will pop up [emoji41]

I dig that idea Jake! Especially since I have a green bike! Wait, mine is 3 shades of green, does that score more points?

Hey! Idea...we could vote on our favorite 'green' bike in the Finished Builds threads by the number of these that each bike gets. And you can give as many of as you want per bike! Thoughts?
