Hi all! My wife's new bike that we are putting together for her, the frame was built by a good friend of ours, just the bottom bracket to weld in place this Tuesday and maybe a weld on side stand then we can start prepping for paint!

Cool frame...what colour/s are you going with? It looks great in bare metal. Those handlebars are really nice too & suit the frame. Is that a rear tab for a coaster, a nexus 7 or 8 with coaster brake?
Hi Dave, it's a Nexus 8spd hub and will have a disc brake, the bars are 'Indian Half Moon'' from Ruff Cycles in Germany and worked out at about $17- Everything Chrome will be matt black and the frame itself will be sprayed a copper effect colour!
Sweet build and color.
I saw that sprocket on FB. Super cool!

Cool and Cheers! A Dutch friend made it for us!
Problem with the 8spd hub has come up! one of the small 'selectors?' is broke, well it was second hand! Local charity bike shop has given me a box of shimano bits and the part is in there!!! Let's see what kind of a job stripping it down and replacing it is! I shall keep you posted!
That tank is sooo cool!!
Love it!
May I ask tire brand/model/size?
Cheers!
