After robbing a bunch of parts off this one, for other builds, I threw it together with left overs from around the shed. as a junker a could thrash around. It turned out pretty nice, so it got a fresh coat paint and a better wheelset, saddle etc lol. Still a thrasher though, can always repaint it again, or not😉

The bike looks good!

A Brooks saddle is just a leftover from the shed? That's a good shed. All the stuff in my storage is actually junk.

I've been working on thining out the collection. So I've swapped on normal seats to sell em off, and keep the Brooks.

Which wheel set do you prefer to ride? I like both, but the 700c has the edge.
I prefer the the 26 for this frame. It makes a good bomber on the fatties, as I roll through the mud over what ever and not care.
On the 700c you are looking in front all the time and picking the best line.
But I love the 700c for a fast bmx style, light off road, gravel, pavement cruiser.
I swapped them onto my 26" Monza and absolutely love it.

What size tires? Looks like a tight fit.
