They Said It Couldn’t Be Done: UPDATE
I got a lot of comments saying that my photos were too big. My post looked like a Dave post. I resized them for your viewing pleasure.
What can it be? Please be patient, these are high quality photographs. But, once they load, it’s a beautiful thing!! After the pics is the story behind the piece. Also, check my art direction, see if you notice the red, white, and blue background. Damn, I’m nice. Sike, it just happened that way.










The story behind what you see here goes a lil something like this. Dude came into the shop one day, said he had a bike for sale. It was a frame that I had as a kid, but in 24″ mode. It was dogged. Tires flat, one pedal, seat busted, and dirty as hell. Well, as you can see I cleaned it up a wee bit. I had the frame sitting forever. I was telling Kyle about how I wanted to make it a fixed cruiser. He said it couldn’t be done. He dismissed it, and laughed every time I brought it up. Sike, I’m just playing. I won’t put Kyle on blast. Dudes definitely scratched their heads when I brought about my idea. R.I.P. to Sheldon Brown, he helped me alot via email with all the questions I was afraid to ask the dudes out of fear of being stoopid. Igei was on my side, I ordered the parts, and he hooked it up building the wheels, cleaning the hubs and fixing the brake. It’s a little rigged, with the zip ties holding the cable in place, but I’m working on it. It was a long time coming, and still a work in progress. I’m gonna change the pedals and seat. I’ll keep you updated. I just wanted to finally get some pics for everybody asking about it. This bike is not for sale, no more offers please. Finally, if anybody else has hooked up a bike like this, I want to see it. Don’t bite my style. I DEED IT!!!
Recognition to all the DQM dudes and Trackstar for helping out making this project happen.
