Does make the Deluxe Redux seem a lot cooler in retrospect.

Re: Ooof. I LOVE LOVE LOVE my vintage Fats, but I am so so so glad I didn't throw money away on this. Hopefully they get everything sorted out design-wise before production starts up. That said, even the builds are lame! And having a slim rigid fork on that Coke can head tube is silly -- for an...

What a nice this was! I really love the Mantis and the Berthoud and the OG and the Yeti. But I LOVE the transfomation of the Potts (great rebuild thread). I wish it were my size, um, for fantasizing purposes. Dang, I had to go Ibis. Gotta vote a for a bike I could actually see myself riding.

I wouldn't think the loop is for a Hite-Rite, but rather to keep the seat clamp from rotating -- it isn't a separate loop like an old Salsa, but a piece the seat bolt passes through, right? I'd also run a pulley. Let's see some pics!

Undercat. I mean, Fat.

Re: Re: Taperlite's are a little older, but if it is an '88 you can check the parts timeline on MOMBAT. I think Hyperlites were '90. For riding, no worries---and they look great too. I only mention it since some things seemed period and others (bars, tires) didn't.

Re: The black will look a lot better but aren't Taper/Hyperlite a few years too new for an '88?

Whoa there, elitist! What's wrong with a man who loves Exage 300 LX. The way I see it, it's 300 better than standard Deore LX ;)

Re: Great looking bike though (mud flap and nondriveside pic aside).

So hard not to vote for TitAnal, but somehow I managed to suppress my adolescent humor. oTIS GUy! Tons of great bikes this month.

Neat stuff! Why not #6?....or #7? Does your bike have the serial # on the BB shell? http://mombat.org/BalloonerIISpec1.jpg

Super cool--the camo idea is great as is drop bar'ing it. I really miss my Mt Tam. Great riding bikes and under valued, RIP to TET. I didn't click through to the other build blog to see if you mentioned it, but how was the process with Clockwork for the stem? I've been curious about them.

Thanks! Little by little...

Why'd you do contrasting colors for the brakes/hubs/cranks?

The set of entries filled out so nicely. What a diverse lot of (kickass) bikes!

Re: Quick and Dirty POTM June Nice shot, Chris!

Strong set of bikes!

New stem :)

Free motivation!

I'll race you for pinks at Keyesville next year ;)
