Random Lopery!


			thirdraildesignlab posted a photo:	The original aesthetic inspiration for this build. The off-white color matches the MINI, our last MINI, and the Karmann Ghia before it. Ultimately, I let go of the tomato red because my wife pointed out it would look wonk next to all the honey leather. So the bike is just the off-white. This fixed gear build features a custom-installed S&S coupler system, for maximum travel capabilities.Read the build logs and more on the Team Lope Tyre Clubbe site:www.teamlopetyreclubbe.com

blacksasuage Rapscallion Darkening Commences

So once I have stripped wifebot(tm)s old east asian townie bike, I’ll be taking that frame, and Rapscallion’s, in for powdercoating, along with one for Lung I believe. Anyway, Rapscallion is going matte black to match the Mixte frame that it used to have. In anticipation of same, I put my black Miche Primato Advanced cranks thereon, for science. I also recently picked up my beloved half-half clip-in Shimano pedals, this time also in black, and mounted those as well. Let me tell you, kid hauling is easier clipped by a mile. I’m also rigging up a second bar with grips and lever so that it can be switched out when Wee Z isn’t with me, for a more comfortable riding position.

In honor of my arrival after my test ride on the new cranks, 7-11 unfurled a Sausage Roll banner, which is sort of my family crest anyway.
