    Default Let's see your bicycle

    Apparently many of us share more than one hobby.

    Let's see your bicycles, folks. Mine is a Felt "1903" (that's the model name; it was manufactured in the late 90's)



    I got it well-used, with a poorly maintained rear single speed coaster brake hub, plenty of chips and dings, and old tubes and tires.

    I installed a new wheelset from ABC with Nexus 3 speed (hills are too hilly, legs too scrawny and ??? too fat), and new presta tubes.

    Also swapped to a more swept back handlebar. The mirror is really nice to have. Vintage style headlight on front. I will be installing some other kind of grips, and a vintage looking taillight later.

    The box I build out of scrap wood and attached to an aluminum rack. My goal was to be able to go to the store for a gallon of milk (which I have now accomplished twice).



    I had to 3d print a bracket adapter for the rack as the bike doesn't have attachment points on the frame.



    Cast iron bottle opener because why not? (it is for come bottles not beer, don't worry)
