pulling out all stops for the ultimate sound system in the mancave...
 
I needed to find new ride for a friend,
Jeirvine agreed to sell this really sweet TREK 420 mixte,
Everyone agreed the drops and turkey levers need to be swapped for upright bars.

I went over to Jeirvines place and it was practice night for his band, which is
one af the best bands out of Baltimore..

So I got to put in some wrench time with a kick arse sound system!

How many shifters do you need on that bike!?! ;)

Looks like a cool evening, always love a live band but I've never tried to get any work done during a show/practice. Looks like you were able to stay fairly productive though.

ha ha, you found it, it was getting late and I need to get new cables at the shop in the morning,
this way my friend can test it before I swap it over! but its going to happen.

it needs a matching seat but its a cool ride.

Wow, what bars are those? Velo Orange? SUPER cool bends on them. Looks like a perfect sweep angle.

puchfinnland 01-10-13 08:07 AM

Yep, they are VO bars,
love to find a matching seat, but a little at a time!

Somebody getting married or do they play weddings?

Love the 45 adapter logo.

Me too! I was going to comment if someone else didn't. Nice axes, too -- I want a Jazzmaster. That one looks genuinely vintage, unless they've reissued the block inlay ones from the late 60s/70s.

And Jeff Bridges on drums, how cool is that? ;)

Those top ones are for overdrive. :D

The bike is now done, now I hope I get to get the new owner on it ASAP and enjoy a new C&V riding partner.

more pics soon

Nice, mike! And mr. Irvine too. Nothing like some good. Tunes while working on the bike. I had Bob D. on, vinyl, while sawing and drilling on the moto yesterday. I hope you find a nice appreciating owner for this nice build.

HAHA! My first thought was, "The Dude is on the drums!"

Yes she came over tonight for a few minutes all full of smiles, to see it and test it shortly,
she likes the bike but not my situation....
:bang:

Man I really want to resolve some things ASAP...
arghh!!!!! It's going to be quite painful cycling with her Saturday.

:bang:

All four band members have day jobs.

When asked, though, only the drummer says "I'm a drummer."

Reconcile the projects already in the garage. I'll wager there are lots of very valuable pieces there.
