Fat Chance Yo Eddy Redux II

thats looking nice , certainly the brakes are an improvement over the original alivios that the german & french forums took the pi$$ out of when you first built it up

so I guess you;re on the look out for a larger frame given that this 1s blatently too small for you? with that saddle to stem position change all your need is some tri bars

well done.

why thank you
I would have gone with purple as the classic grellow colour scheme, but red still looks cool.
no real offense meant by the sizing b.t.w. you'd deffo be more comfortable on a ML over a M.

None taken, you'll have to do better to offend me scant
The size is fine, the tt is plenty long enough. Guess thats one of the good things about being a bit taller, it's easier to find and ride a smaller frame rather than vice versa

no intention of offending ever meant.. I used to post retro threads all the time on STW & have the pi$$ taken so was a refreshing change to have this site & be able to speak freely within an appropriate audience

you'd still be better off on a ML tho

That just is stunning bike
One of nicest I have seen this forum.
I must start search one for myself now...

Can someone explain these Fat sizes to me :roll:

If I'm doing bad pictures, I do holograms. Rolling Eyes
Truly beautiful work of art. Wink
I love Fat Very Happy

I'm lost.....

I love this bike. The cross stop really makes it.

The crosstop was out of neccessity. The fork steerer was too short to run a cable hanger. It had to be a ringle / king / pauls front end so crosstop it was

In Spain, saying "I do holograms," is the same as not making good pics
StarTrek ago "Holograms" = bad pics

What year and size is the frame?

Thats a fantastic build, its obviously taken a great deal of patience to get all of those parts together but its clearly been worth it.

I look forward to seeing your next build.

That is a lovely, lovely bike!

I think I may have just had a gentleman's accident
