I like this thread already especially because of the Led Zeppelin reference

Here's my chameleon frame... '76 Austro Daimler Inter 10

As bought at the Trexlertown Swap Meet...lookin brown and ugly.



Fresh Tires, new chain, derailleurs and shifters... Riding it this way I discovered how much I like this bike



Here she is built up for Velo-de-Cheapo with the original rear wheel taken apart and rebuilt as a 3 speed IGH and some different brake calipers and a Brooks B66...this remained the same for about 6 months as my main commuter



Then the rear wheel finally gave up the ghost..the rim was toast and I started breaking spokes, So it was rebuild time again.

This time I knew I wanted this as my commuter and go-to bike just to grab and ride so I went with a Nexus 7 with a coaster brake, new Sun CR18 rims, new Double Butted Spokes and sized the chainring down to something a little less ridiculous. This is how she stands now. Probably gonna get some fenders before she heads out again.
