NotSoBigBen Posted July 3, 2021 Share Bit of an update to these bikes... Been a bit 'bored' so decided to tackle something I've been thinking about for a while. The Orange/black frame had been repaired at the seat tube, the silver one on the left chain stay. Neither of the welds have given any trouble but might as well build one frame with all the best bits. Naturally one can't have this hodge podge of colours so a paint update might as well be done ???? Was also an opportunity to upgrade the rear from QR to TA, again a challenge because it uses a longer than normal axle ????... Found an axle but the lever was bent, off to my aluminium welder mate to get it extended by 10mm and sort the lever. Anyway long story short, here's the result!

Hope to do lots of bike build like yourself when the kids have grown up. Forget about Dangerholm, we have NSBB. Ps. Where is the photo in the shorts!

I must say I enjoy the tinkering, building and finding solutions almost as much as riding. Retirement has its benefits, time is not an issue ????

MudLark Posted July 7, 2021 Share Very neat! I have an aluminium one (still in the original black and blue) and am very fond of it. They are great bikes. NotSoBigBen 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
