Feature Bike
So, inspired by @Tsundere ‘s excellent Anti-theft parts bin sh*tter thread, I’m going to mess around with an old KHS bike that has been banging around in the family for a while. A change in my commuting habits means I could do with a lock up and leave bike; but the commute includes a 300m climb, so it the bike needs to pretty light as well as cheap, shitty and practical. I’m thinking the quality frame on the Montana will be a good start.
This is how my son left it:
He’s done me a favour in covering it in a superbly arty layer of mud splat and chain rust, and the oury grips are nicely manky; but clearly there’s a fair bit that needs changing and de matching. Have dug out some wheels (rear nutted) and odd but light tyres.
I won’t be attempting the cammo paint effects that Tsundere mastered; instead, I think stickers and filth will feature heavily; although this one is going to have to go:
