Kaiju

[GuitarlCarl]

TT bikes have intrigued me for a long time. When we began discussing the build off and Skinny Tires were mentioned (by yours truly) I didn't think we'd really get anywhere. But here we are with a strong contingent of builds, more than the Muscle Bikes and almost as many as the Off Road, in a category that's been largely ignored here at RRB. I'm grateful so many of you joined in on the fun. It'll also be interesting to see how many FINISH in each category.

Kaiju - a 90's Nishiki touring bike TT mod

Most of what I started with prior to cutting the top tube at the seat post but after cutting the head tube to shorten the standover height.

Top is my build and the bottom is one of the bikes that inspired me, a Russian built Tachyon.

Wow, cool build! I will have to go back and cbeck out your rear disc add ( I've had a busy last 3 weeks or so).
Everything ties together on this TT touring!

a foam cardstock sandwich board from the art supply needs more protection from the chain than the spokes would... helps hold it all in place too.
