Lovely build :)

Cheers SP….. :D

Just got in from the shakedown ride… all good, seat post had to be dropped down to about 35” from the ground, but as I said before this 22” frame will probably be out grown pretty quickly as he’s still only 13… Straps had to go, at least till he’s more in tune with it, & I think a need to take maybe 1 or 2 more links out of the chain. :roll:

Never mind the bike - love the loft & workshop!
And for your titillation, home for now is next to Mrs Peachys 1955 Ladies’ Sport in the bike store….. ;)

That is looking pretty special mate and deserves a nice hanging spot close to the front. Though I doubt it will be still long enough to be hung up.
Holy moly, 22" , I wish I could grow into a 22", I struggle to get a 21" to fit. :)

Nice Lotus tucked away at the rear there sir!

Double post... one for each I guess.


Ha, our “show ponies” built specifically for riding to the beer tent at MM20..... :facepalm:

:D Don’t worry, it will take the slot currently taken by the 19.5” Yellow Electron... which is being brought in doors!!!!!!! As “Art” :facepalm:

Oh and the BMX won’t be around for long (do you remember my first “Father & Son” thread? How things change)
 
Oh & one more thing... after a couple of miles Jimmy decided to lift out of the saddle and start a sprint..... it was like watching him take his first steps......
