That is truly lovely!

I think we should call them cages and ropes. That would be sweet.



Wait, no, it wouldn't

So i just picked up my first SS yesterday afternoon.

It's an old Robin Hood frame, flipped & chopped bars. No idea on crank, wheels, etc.

It needs a little love, but that's why i got it...

I hope that is a FG not a SS. Other wise you will end up on your face eventually.

I don't see why you would end up on your face. Maybe the CG on my bikes are too far to the rear, but i can lock my front wheel before flippin. The rear will lift and my face will be ripped of, but i am not flipping.

I said eventually. Front brake only on a SS is not a good idea.

It is SS. I'm actually planning on running a rear brake too. OR switching it to FG. After riding it around a bit just having the front brake isn't too bad. Now of course there were no "emergency"/oh ****! situations on my SHORT ride yesterday...

Get urself a rear brake, wouldnt cost as much as a FG. If u want to get an FG then buy one off the shelf for cheap. (Thats the best and cheapest alternative).
Ride safe :D......

If he has the right hub a cog and lockring is not that much.

I ride a fixed hub with no lock ring (being a beast, i striped them) and a track cog. Front brake only. No safety issues YET.

I love the silver bike above, save for the core-sample drops.

I bought this Iro group buy frame from a guy in NYC for $200 and built it from stuff lying around for a friend.

whats that cross bar about on your handlebars? looks nice

extra support for droping cliffs

lol and unexpected roots and rocks.

That's the only issue I have with the bike as well. lol. They were a set I had in the parts bin... any idea for bars? I'd love to hear them!

the bars are good. just tape them and plug them.

Finally done, sorry for my lousy photographic qualities..
