Pulled of a fork off an old Norco mountain bike

1. Where did you find that one?
2. You holding out on me?
3. Where's the rest of the bike now?

 

[ingola]

1. Garbage
2. No it was in the long grass in the back lying down.
3. Back in the long grass again.

 

[ingola]

first time this has ever happened bolt snapped and wedge still in there

 

[ingola]

Couple of taps and it popped out

 

[Starnger]

Iconic design frame to start with! Also a cool hub. Good luck with the build!

 

[ingola]

Started pulling out the bendix hub out tomorrow wheel building time to go wonder in the long grass for rims

^that's not far from accurate, you need a machete to check out Ingola's stash

 

[ingola]

My wife would kill me for showing you this

There are bikes hidden all through that mess I've been restoring bikes for years the stuff I rat rod come from this pile of parts. Most my builds consist of me wondering around finding treasures and putting them on a frame. I'm pretty sure I give @MattiThundrrr cramps

I'm pretty sure I give MattiThundrrr cramps

Sometimes

But I ain't All Tore Up about it, that's just The Way I Walk

 

[ingola]

Fork now matches the rest of the bike going to find a stem and bars today

 

[ingola]

New tang headset fits but didn't consider my locknut was 21.2 mm and my stem was 22.1 so took the locknut out of the other tang and works

Mocked it is with a few more of the parts I scored with @MattiThundrrr yesterday

Now time to make it all fit

 

[ingola]

Start with the wheels got these

Love the profile on them time to but my hub in

 

[yoothgeye]

I know it’s just a mock up but seeing that front tire on backwards just drives me nuts.

Your right never noticed look even closer back one is to and there two different tires and there's only one pedal.

 

[ingola]

There we go

 

[MattiThundrrr]

Those rims are so beastly, love the wide profile!
