New here and there a re some BEAUTIFUL bikes in here! Got into biking (everyday of my life) 5 years ago. Started with a 6ku (still have) and after a while was dying to build by own.
Here are a couple of my builds.
Carmen San Diego - This my first build from last year. With a 52t chainring, 16t cog, and 27" chrome Ukai rims she's an absolute monster to ride but I love the challenge and usually ride her when I want to take a longe ride with less stops. Take off succcckkkkks hahaha
Name (TBD) - Always wanted a technium. Picked one up 2 weeks ago and got to work. She's almost done and has some major look changes coming via wheels.
Since the quarantine I've hand polished (Only up to 3k sandpaper because I didn't have 5k & 8K) Stems, handlebars, and seatposts on almost all my biks. It's a lot easier and less time consuming than I thought but don't get me wrong it still time consuming.
