Fuck. I just picked up an old steel frame of mine from the local sandblaster. Some slight rustpitting, but nothing serious. Take it home, do some minor filling with chemical metal, sand, dust it off, wipe it with acetone. Thought I'd just start out by spraying the fork using some Hammerite Direct-to-metal primer-paint-and-topcoat-thing. Weather's nice and warm. Humidity is fine. Shake the can like a maniac and start spraying. Paint runs everywhere. It's milk-like and runny as fuck. And a single can costs £15! Was so looking forward to putting it all together tonight...

I'd like the custombound version: http://www.protokol.dk/Bogbinder_Klara_K.html
Only ten made, and I guess they're expensive :) -
Rode 35 kms near the dikes to the west of my hometown, Ribe. Flat and slightly breezy. Tracked it using Endomondo for my HTC Wildfire, which for some reason thinks my top speed was ~66 km/h, which seems a bit optimistic ;)

Leaning? On a christianna? But they steer so well!
I worked on one delivering flowers for awhile, I was super impressed by them.Was it the older model with to parallel tubes going under the box or the newer model with one big tube? I'm around 105 kgs, so not the lightest... I'd rather have a "Sorte Jernhest" or a "BellaBike"
Edit: Oh, and rereading your reply, I think we might have misunderstood each other. I don't lean as such, but the frame is so flexible, that I end up tilted to the side...

For real cargo, I wouldn't use a bleeding pashley, they can only take about as much as what a LHT that's kitted out can.
IMO, it's all about the Big Dummy, but the Bullit and Bakfeits are great options.
If I was ever to have the money I would buy a Christianna over anything else though. Great bikes.Very nice bikes, yes, but handling isn't the best and at least the old model had quite a bit of flex, so a big guy like me was leaning quite a lot, if the road wasn't totally level.


Irony and non-native english speakers doesn't mix to well, I guess. Horrible player and even worse as an agent...
