looks fantastic!

what in the f

I'd go with black, easier to keep clean and I think the white writing on the red doesn't really match with the other parts. My 2 cents.

beautiful!

As weather slowly (but hopefully surely) gets warmer it's time to do something with the bike. My original idea was to sell this and buy a low-mid end early 90's roadie but nah, let's try something different.

The plan
1x6 (probably gonna upgrade to a proper 7s freewheel and shifter later)
fatty ass slick tyres
probably a different cockpit
non-hideous pedals
make it look like less of an ugly clusterf*ck

Now this year my tight budget is even more tight when it comes to cycling but I really wanna make this happen.

How?
I get an old LX/DX/XT crankset for cheapo
front derailleur goes off
some proper shifter goes on to operate with rear derailleur
fenders go off
700x42 - 45 - 47 (depending on price/value and space) tyres go on
not sure what to do with the rack yet but it probably stays

I'm also considering non-QR hub axles and seatpost clamp, because of blatant thieves.
Oh and it's obviously not a weight-weenie build hehe.

The budget is around 50 GBP. Wish me luck.

the whole bike is brutally on point!

I feel bad for your knees, it must suck not to be able to ride longer distances. :(
The project seems good tho, keep us posted!

would ride tbh
too bling with the golden stuff but not that bad

raaaad!

i like this

kinda meh, bars + hood setup + stem doesn't seem right

hell yes!

Thanks mate!

Totally rad! How wide are those tyres if I may ask?

that's gonna be good.
