Hey I had a crazy idea what if a city made it a law that you had to have a brake, but you didn't want one so you wanted to put the brake somewhere crazy as kinda a "F U" to the man?
That'd be crazy.
That'd be crazy.

after fixing the brakes for this camper and since it didnt have shifters or a chain anyway, i did the maths to figure out an easy ratio and threw a chain on to complete my first ever conversion in under two minutes.
its a neat light and lugged rixe frame made in west germany with the olympic rings on it. of course, a lot of work and adjustment are still needed, but it rides very well.

The frame does look ridiculously small....
Is adriano a female? I still dont know if everyone was joking or not when he/ she posted her feminine hand operating his/her bell on his/her kilo.

I think adriano might be a girl, I mean, small size frames, 650 wheels, feminine hands...I don't know.
Another SSFG mystery yet to be solved.

Fixed a few things...swapped the tubular wheelset for a clincher wheelset and got a 21T cog so my ratio is pretty sane. Still need to get some Jitensha or porteur bars and a road stem for commuter duty.
