Project Bike

[cyclenut]

 

I spent some time in the garage on a project bike this Saturday.

I completed the bar tape and cabling last night.  For obvious reasons I'm changing the cranks to a standard 53/39 as soon as I find one.

 

This frame came from an ad that Rolypolly placed

Nice going.

Looks very nice,

so this is getting donated to someone.

Windblown: I'm happy if it does get donated. 

As with the previous bike ... it's available on temporary loan first .... then if you want to commit to the sport of cycling it's available on permanent loan .... then, if you're really keen and you don't have the budget for a bike of your own you might just find that it becomes yours.  

 

Working on a 56cm and 60cm for the same purpose. This one's a 54cm.

I have a 15 year old guy who is a size 54 and is really determined to make it as a racer but has not the big budget. PM me if he fits the deal. thanx, would be greatly appreciated. Im no relation to him so its not a biased opinion
