PVD Rigid 29er
From Pvdwiki
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"
Welded together using Weld Mold 880 filler wire.
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.
