anyone ever MAKE a frame?
Im bored and definitley don't need another bike. but, i feel building a bike would be damn cool. I have plenty of parts lying around, and between my equipment and the school's, i should be able to make a sick lugged frame. cost of parts is about $250 for all materials, + another 75 for powdercoat.
what are the options for a lugged bike? i know soma makes one with a more relaxed geometry (delancy?)
something with polished lugs is much preferred. I doubt i can find what i want for less than $400, but by all means, if you have a line on something please let me know.
