Remember when people thought this was cool? Lol. The best part was they were all slow as balls IRL
I still think old death trap wheels are cool. the fixie thing is old enough now that it's kind of retro/nostalgic at this point instead of being "cringe"
The wheels are neat and I actually like the deep section aluminum rims.What bothers me in that pic is that stem.Like just get a normal riser or leave the steerer taller, or maybe don't run track drops....Recently picked up a rare frame that was treated like this. A fun project to fix up with parts I have on hand.
>>2025552I bet whoever rides this looks goofy as fuck.I usually love fixed gear bikes but that bike is like a leftist's haircut — sure, it's different and unique, but it also looks like complete shit.
>>2025558Wtf, is that something like bondo?
It still is cool for $300
>>2025570nah. Bottom section on the seat tube is a repair since someone busted the seat tube(I presume) at the front derailleur mount. So later I sanded it down and found it was a split repair they bronze brazed together.The head tube junction was always like that and aero since it's a zunow z-1 proform frame.However the crash was bad enough the front brake swung around and dented it so that too was repaired via brazing, and both sections were sprayed over to stop rusting.Mostly posted it since it too was a victim of single speed/fixieing which I guessed due to the weird bars+grips, and single chainring.
>>2025558is that a paint job or a wrap?
>>2025552I've never seen one IRL but I assume it's mainly gook type people who have a trispoke
>>2025558> Steel dropsAre you going NJS or just evil?
>>2025601Paint job. >>2025604I pulled the stem and bars and they are hanging up.
>>2025608You are a good and honest man.
>>2025587jesus dawg that frame sounds toast
