New Bike: $47 frame part IIanon
Apr 16, 2002 11:40 PM

Mission accomplished, bike's together but I haven't had a chance to ride it yet except a quickie around the block. Can't wait to get it dirty tomorrow. I'm riding even if it's a monsoon outside.

I ended up with a 'Zoke on the front. Not sure if I'm going to keep it or go back to rigid. All the other parts are off my old bike. The chain tensioner is a Rohloff and I'm running two rings (34 and 28) in front with a 15 in back. Makes it better for commuting duties and easily ridable on the tight trails without dragging out the tools.

Looks great,where did you say you got that frame? I'd like to know more about the Rholoff too. I got a Cannoncreak that I would like to go s/s with, I like the dual chainring idea.
It's from airbomb.com....anon

...the Rohloff is from webcyclery and actually came off of my Cannondale that I just retired, bent frame. I'm adjusting to the new frame as it's heavier and the geometry is completly different. But so far so good. Seems like a decent frame and for the price you won't hear any complaints from me.

Nice rig. I'm up for another mudbath. Maybe Friday afternoon? I just need to figure out how to get my brakes to work in this swampy soaked underwater world we call Seattle.
I'm down with that...anon

...I'm going out this afternoon on a maiden dirt (mudd) voyage. Rode to school on the road this morning and got very wet.

Welcome to Waterworld!(Seattle)


Let me know when and where you want to meet.
