Torsten, this project begs for these

Mike - did you make / have made those disc adaptors or were they an aftermarket item?

Or did spins at some point actually come disk-ready...?

Bit uninfomed when it comes to spins...

I'm for the modifications here, think it'll make an excellent bike.
The brazing is not the neatest, and maybe the mount could have been handled more imaginatively, but otherwise pretty good.

Yellow and Yeti Man would be my choice if that counts for anything by the way.

A little update... frame/fork finished, but a minor error happen somewhere between the bikesmith and the paint shop, - the frame/fork switched colors

The frame (in the back) turned out yellow, and the fork (partly hidden on the leveling bench) turned out greenish-not so yetiish...

Back to the spray booth!
