gorgeous no?
Its a single speed street bike i can actually custom build myself. Get a cheap steel frame, give it a white undercoat and another white layer of metal paint on it. Get some cool stickers and maybe stencil some art work on the frame.
And then modify the hell out of it.
Polished cranks from Surly, Shimano hubs with quick release , Surly rear single speed cog, Mavic rims , Continental street bike tyres or perhaps something from Maxxis or Kenda.
Get a cheap used dropdown handle bar like so:
chop off the really curved ends and install it upside down. Get some good V brakes from Tektro or Avid. And then, get this baby:
Brooks leather seat and tool bag.
Online street bike reviews toot this as the most comfy seat out there. The leather pouch looks uber cool too.
And then i'm gonna buy a cheap bag for carrying the bike on the MRT. Should be light without an expensive Shimano gear system on it.
And i should guess the whole build would cost about SGD 300 only. I can pick up a cheap frame and then get a new one once i thrash it. Components can be reinstalled , hence the reason for expesive and good ones.
Can't wait for my hand to heal so i get down to it XD
Cheers from an excited,
