Laced and trued a wheel set out of spokes, rims and hubs I had laying around. 700c instead of the stock
26”... cuz why not? Still plenty of changes before final assembly, but I couldn’t help myself. The stem is too long, and I’m not digging the handle bars like I thought I would... but that’s okay, the LOOK stem I have coming will fix that, and like most of us... I have plenty of bar options to swap out. I wanted some gum walls, but these WTB Nano’s were half price... so that’s what it got! It was another wet one here in the old Pueblo... so even though I don’t have any brakes on this yet, I rode it home on the empty late night streets at a slow pace. Damn is it comfy!! Gonna shop for brakes tomorrow and then it’s on!!! I forgot how care free a single speed can be. It’s been over a decade since I’ve ridden a freewheel!
