It's reinforced everytime I look at the two inch gap above my tire. But thanks for rubbing it in. I really need that in my life.

no problem!

Yeah, that must be awful. How do you live with such practical clearance?

Don't call me Clarence.

i really did lol :lol:

bike looks good man

Unicrown for life *****es, just not one that looks like that. HOLLA

But one of the better looking IRO bicycles. HOLLA

Here's my first conversion.
Raleigh Competition '82.
The frame is pretty nice 531 w/suntour dropouts. I might repaint. I'm not sure if a like the miami vice scheme.

Another Raleigh! I have an old Record that I love ( even if I don't ride her much)...

Mine's purple and pink, go figure. I like Colnago and Pinarello pastel bikes too, lol.

I was looking at that frame on ebay I was thinking about trying to get it.....looks nice....I couldn't decide if I liked the paint job or not....either way I definitely have a thing for raleighs

christmas is fun

how is the fuji track? I was considering buying one.

My ever evolving De Bernardi in it’s latest configuration

sweet colorscheme. i like the way the velocity decal pics up the frame. subtle details like that make it.

your seat is lower than your stem! don't see that too often. did you repaint that?

Thanks I originally had a yellow and orange thing going but my Ronald McDonald complex got the best of me

I did have it powder coated. That stem had a ton more drop then my last one and I really liked where my bars where positioned before so that is where it ended up.

i haven't really had a chance to get out and ride i that much, but as far as weight and components and stuff, its not bad. The toe clips that come on it suck, and i desperately need new ones and the cog was loose when i got it, but locktite fixed that. As far as ride quality it's pretty sweet, i've liked it so far, its quick and has a nice ratio

That saddle looks like it was on the movie "Stealth"

What is your inseam?

Mart fix convert

did you repaint that? or were those the original colors? looks nice

Rattle can with lotsa prep time. Also ground off mounts for shifty bits and added cables stops on frame for rear brake along with rear brake v mounts. Had caliper style stamped steel brakes to start with. YUK!!
Used to look like this after the first conversion.Bike pic

That blue is funky, like its glowing. What gear ratio you running?

Thanks 33 front 18freewheel/16 fix in the back

My junk yard Azuki 58cent frame and parts from the parts box. So far just using center gear of 5 speed free wheel and cut off large chainring. Shortened handlebar 2 1/2 inches each side and used Grip shift grips with front brake only. Rode it yesterday and it was fun, climbed very steep streets fairly easily and brake worked well. I can see the appeal for single speed bikes, I am 61 years old and this is fun.

Excellent! Having fun is what this is all about.
