/r/Frankenbike
The Huffy wheel inspired this one. Stainless boat steering wheel , teak swim platform, coco coir lined saddle baskets (in spring) with soil and live plants.
I am creating a swingbike (added steering axis welded in front of the seat) from two child bikes i had laying around. It works and it is a lot of fun. It is too easy to ride so i am planning to add an other folding/turning axsis. Unfortunately I can't yet finish it, it is so cold in my workshop, the paint freezes instead of drying...
I am trying to mount a 11/16" cruiser bar to a 25mm 70s french stem . I've used a few coke can skin shims but it's still too loose. Is there a better solution? I considered trying hose clamp material in hopes that the slots would provide a little grip. I guess I'm not optimistic about coke can shims. Anyone tried such a thing before?
Saw this bikepacking rig online and had to share.
