Short lived fixie
This is Jim’s £7 fixie that he rode for a week until the fella he got the frame from reminded him about the crack in the downtube – ‘only for the turbo trainer’ apparently! He managed to give it life using some of the many bike bits lying about in the workshoppe, the only cost being the chain & 2 tubes. Check out the crank set mounted on the left hand side (very cool but the pedals have to be Loctited in so they don’t wind themselves out) with coach bolts holding the chain ring on & the headset shim made from a chunk of old seat post. Jim is now on the hunt for another freebie track frame, preferably one that’s not already knackered!
Good work Jim.
