Project...bike for my daughter...finished!

Very nice!

Are you using an ahead to quill adapter on the forks and what is the bracket on the forks for the front brakes?

Many thanks

Yup..using a quill adapter to use a nice short stem which are generally unavailable in quill mode...the cable thingy is one of these http://www.sjscycles.co.uk/tektro-tektr ... prod14032/

Lovely little build. Can't wait until mine are old enough for me to do the same thing. There was only one seat choice for it

Very nice build!
I like the mary bars a lot (I fitted those bars in my bike and I won't leave them).

And... your daughter has a beautiful (and spanish) name ;-)

Very smart little bike; and good to see someone else utilising the Tektro power hanger...

Yes, thanks for the heads-up re using them

That's fine bike for your Daughter. Well done.

Hope it brings you and your Daughter closer together.

Intrigued by these I will look into them.

Can I fit one to a set of z1's instead of the proper adaptor?

Yeah, just cut the bolt short and fit it to the fork brace; which will involve a bit of faffing in having to drill another hole in the centre of the brace but not that difficult...

...has one on the Zokes we fitted to Karls' Dynatech; but that had the single hole in the brace already.

Great stuff thank you. I just need to buy the forks now...

Final incarnation with American classic wheels...think I may build a Daddy version!
