PurpleRacer

[Crank!Basti]

I designed this frame for an small bike business over here in germany some years ago. Only 10 frames were made and this one is the last ever made (just for me).
Since I've been collecting purple anodized parts for another project but could not use them I decided to slap them on this frame an make the "PurpleRacer"

Very cool frame you designed there!
Love the big and little tires too!
Kinda want to see what it looks like with a low cruiser seat and some apehangers though! :mrgreen:

Luke.

 

[Crank!Basti]

Thanks Luke.

Tires are 26x3.0 Kenda flame in the back and 26x1.5 Kendas up front.

The saddle won't stay - but it's not gonna be a cruiser saddle. And: no Ape on this one!

Looks fast already. You need pics in the sun.

 

[Crank!Basti]

Pics in the sun will follow as soon as I get home from work earlier.

Today I managed to connect the rear disc brake. Will have to build some kind of adapter for the front brake next.

Very cool I like the shortness of the frame nice design and component choice.

That stem is so sic! Really love what you have done with this bike. You gotta get some pics in the sun.

 

[Crank!Basti]

Thanks guys.

No sun today - but at least some daylight pics.

Took this bad boy for a ride this morning. Rides surprisingly nice. Needs two more teeth in the back and either a shorter stem or swung handlebars.

I hate racingbikes,but this is really something else! Very nice speed-cruiser. Great colourscheme and frame-design. Thumbs up!

Haste gut gemacht. :wink:

 

[Crank!Basti]

Thanks Wimpy.

Changed the handlebars to a 10" shortened moon bar. rides much better now.

and now I'm gonna take my girl for a ride with her Black&Purple bike.

Those are two tasty bikes my friend, VERY nice work.

Ride the purple tires off of them!

Cheers,

I am Nutz about those frames! Absolutely gorgeous work man... I love how the front tubes curve to follow
the tire in a perfect parrallel hug in rounded shape! Very inspiring. I would buy that for a dollar.
