RE: Monstercross Build pt. 1: Upcycling old wheels & Painting talk

in Cycling5 months ago

Yeeeeeeh! Have you looked into frankenstein bikes (aka monster gravel or monstercross)? They seem really fun to build and ride -- we'll see. So far I still need some parts: chain, headset, fork, tires, stem, seat post, cables. The fun part is picking up all the bits, some used, some new flr as cheap as possible.

No, but I will!

It looks like a cool project. I wish I had more time for such a project.

Do it! How hard is it to find a 90's mountain bike in europe? Steel frames look cool to modify. Or maybe an old cyclocross. Anything would do it really. I plan to build mine around a 26" aluminium frame from 1993
