This bike is my first full solo build. I expect to make a few mistakes. It doesnt matter, it's a stupid bike.

The Specs

  • 73 degree seat tube.
  • 71 degree head tube, for 50mm offset fork.
  • 17.375" chainstays, minimum with sliding dropouts.
  • Clearance for 2.2" tire.
  • 11.75" bb height.
  • 17" C-T Seat Tube.
  • Tubeset is a nova sale set.
  • swapped seat stays for lighter s-bent stays.
  • Paragon sliding drop outs.
  • Crappy BB from a box of Barracuda shells I have laying around.
  • IS Headtube??? Oops. I goofed up some parts so i'm going to have to use a standard head tube. 4.375"

The build

Wheel checking the chainstays for actual tire clearance using the largest tire I plan to use. The stays are just tacked at this point, so i can still make subtle changes.
