Thought I'd start a thread for my bicycles, getting Summit fever again

Here's the bike I took to Summit last year

Have made a few changes since then, bars, grips, stem, seat, chain guard, tyres and lights

As it is now

Awesome bike, But, I really dislike the double bottom bracket ( i do realize this would be cunty to remove) also what are the wide rims youve got?

Yeah, it was originally used to align the front and rear of the bike and was left there because it would have been a pain to do properly. I don't like it either, everything else is sweet now so I might try and change it this winter.

Rims are fat shebas, supposed to be used for riding on snow and sand lol

You have excellent taste! The S2C's are an awesome piece of kit.

What sort of BB/cranks/chainwheel are you planning on using?

Also, how are you going to modify the seat stays to get them wide enough to accomodate that huge tyre?

This will possibly be the heaviest bike known to man when you're finished :lol:

Sweet, good to hear that about the hub.

I'm just using some spare mtb cranks I have, these in fact

Frame is going to be scratch built and yes it will be fucking heavy haha, quite possibly hideously ugly too. At least my hubs will look nice :)

This is crying out for some Jerald Sulky Slicks.

Come in 26" which I assume is what the Sheba is?

Come in plain black too.

Good for epic wheelies too.

I have a set of hookworms that I can't give away

is it cos if you actually plan on riding the bike on any kind of surface they fucking suck?.. might aswell ride on the bare rims youd have the same amount of grip :lol:

Looks wise they are choice though lol

Was thinking about Hookworms plus they are easy to get, is the grip that bad?

Oh and Kirk, I got this hub off ebay as I couldn't find one in NZ but they seem to go for nz$130+ when they are available
