Hi everyone
At Last here is my project, there remains the front disc brake & lever to fix and will probably shorten the fork / lower handlebarsto make it look neat as you can see on the picture
[edit - additional photos]
JC Higgins frame (50's ?)
Skyway 24" wheels
Felt Orange Walls tires 24" x 3
Brooks saddle (nice and easy on your backside; who need modern suspension anyway when it was all invented years ago: balloon tires & spring saddles?!)
Wald 15 mm seatpost (I live in France and we cannot find 15 mm setpost over here as they were never produced - a big Thanks to Jason Kazee at Wald)
Truvativ stylo singlespeed crankset (17-32 ratio)
US to Euro bottom bracket adaptor
1" to 1" 1/2 shim
half link chain
(for those interested, I will make a longer post later on detailling the various stages - issues of the assembly)
I have begun working on project # 2 now :wink:
Cheers all over from France
