I've been slowly tossing this Frank N Bike together...
*** Wheels from my fixie that I never use...
*** Frame I have had hanging in the basement since 2001
*** VooDoo fork I bought for another FnB I built a few years ago ---(has disc, 26" or 700C rim brake post mounts).
*** carbon bars from a freeider bike I dismantled, stem, post, saddle, pedals, chain, grips... all pulled of various bikes I have laying around, collecting dust.
I gotta say, this one turned out pretty firkin sweet is I say so myself.
just a smattering of new stuff
Clarkes brake set fixie/SS cranks tires -- front wheel is a 29er, the rear wheel is 700x37 (frame clearance issue... bike used to be a casual hybrid) headet's new single speeder do-hicky
I might change a couple things as far as the gearing and stem -- (maybe a tick longer)
tire size difference isn't nearly a different as it appears --- I'm standing off to the side when I snapped this pic... almost looks like a 26" / 29er combo... both wheels are the same though 700c roadie's
