Frankenbike lives.
Why do you use that shitty Behr paint, Don’t they have a Sherwin Williams where you live?
Only a paint saleman could ask a question like that.
possibly? One of the 10 most recognized logos in the USA…
Behr is fine if you like to put on 3-4 coats…
I gotta be careful I’m starting to sound like Tom D.
Beautiful…
Although I would have gone solid white bar tape and fixed/SS.
Nice work!
Nicely done. One Less Car.
What part of Washington did you live in?
pretty cool, but you HAVE TO lose that tape and go solid white or black. (recommend white Cinelli cork) Why do you need the chain tensioner - are they vertical dropouts?
I like it.
yes nice, nice.
however, i am still concerned over what you may have been (not) thinking when you bought that horrid looking POS in the first place . . . . . . . . WTF?
Cool. I would have gone all black personally. Get some black Cinelli cork. If you want to be cool, get an eccentric ENO hub from White industries. It’ll eliminate that chain tensioner and it’s a flip flop, so you could run a fixie on the other side.
Needs to lose that rear brake as well.
What kind of crank is that?
Excellant job. What a cool bike, very clean machine. My Hunny Bunny did a similar job to his old Bianchi after a couple of early IMs. The frame was powder coated by a place that does patio furniture. A virtually indestructable paint job. His bike also is black and has a Bart Simpson sticker for his head badge. He named the bike Pee Wee.
The handlebar wrap gives me an idea with a cow theme:
Commuuuuuuuter.
My heart skipped a beat when I opened this thread. I have one of those yellow and blue Trek 2200s. I even have the 105 triple. I tell people that it’s “malliot-jaune” yellow. I love that bike!
