This Morning



Tonight



a little better picture, before I got the seat and stem adjusted to fit



Alloy wheels from an old sports tourer(cracked frame) and alluminum bars and stem, everything else is steel. I have a Schwinn approved light set for it. New tires as soon as I can get them.
Painted it with epoxy enamel appliance paint from ace, baked the frame in a kiln at 250 for four hours and then put it together. This way the paint will take a good bit of abuse. My new beater bike. It rides so smooth, a lot like my old ford Galaxy. As I tell all my carbon fibre friends, its good to have a bike you can beat a mugger to death with then ride home on.
