Speaking of nostalgia, I found out the bike I rode from Canada to Mexico twice got stolen earlier this year. Gave it to a friend after the fork on his Peugeot snapped. He left it locked up downtown overnight and it was gone when he went back for it.
Those frames were new to the market when I was in high school
Same. Those canti mounts are gonna be a great spot for a bespoke rack
Voile strap flapping like an excited turkey buzzard’s wing as you shred the single-track
Rode this thing on a nice meandering Tarck century around the neighborhood for its official last ride before I take it apart.
I lied. FedEx lists my fenders as delivered but they never got here and no one knows where they are.
My 5’11" nephew tried to ride this up a 15% climb behind the shack. It didn’t end well.
Nah sorry but my ptsd from the ding dongs at ccc that thing needs more than just “work”
But sweet find tho
When I lived in PDX my gf would always tell me to go to CCC whenever I needed parts and all the parts I ever found there were total fucking garbage or overpriced but they did buy some shit from me so that was cool.
Total fucking ding-dongs accurately describes the clientele and some of the staff.
I don’t know what (ed) the CCC is, but yes good point. I’ve done enough bike co-op production shifts to have a realistic idea what might come up. It’s sup’s size and she only has two bikes so I’ll get this rolling for her, or until a show-stopper appears.
I mean the courier ccc but community cycling is also kinda cringe. But aren’t we all
I mean I think we all know the dude that just goes to those spots, buys all the good shit and sends it to eBay for 10x the price he paid
Good looking setup, though your first post should go here;
TY
Nice bike new person welcome to tarck
