Andy Perks 853 singlespeed MTB

[velocipede]

I’ve just bought this and waiting in some parts - it’s a beautiful bike that, looking at some Flickr images, looks like Andy originally built for himself.

I’ve read that Andy hangs out on here - does anyone know his username? I’d like to get in touch…..

This is the bike - shown I guess soon after Andy built it - it’s still exactly as pictured just without saddle and brakes - will post pics later this week

Some photos of it after the first shake down ride tonight

It’s superb - really light and runs totally silent - it’s a lovely thing - a few scratches and the paint is sadly crazed all over but it doesn’t take away from Andy’s handywork - the lugs and finer details are gorgeous

That is lush fair play. Andy Perks was a member on here.

Lovely

Make sure you have enough seatpost in the frame though!
