callum89 · 2013-03-15T18:33:53+00:00

Hey, I am new to the road.cc forum and thought ad share one of my many projects on the go at the moment. I picked this frame up at my work as it was going in the skip so thought i'd make it work as a fixie as i always wonted to build one. I have included some pictures hope they work I sanded the frame down using some 800 wet and dry and gave the frame four coats of primer, then I sanded down and removed some flaws in the primer and primered again. now waiting to choose a colour :) and look for some components. Looking forward to hear of other people building simalar projects and here what there planning to do. Thanks Callum

Dude you are making a fixie,
Dude you are making a fixie, but you have forgotten to grind off the cable stops and brake mount before priming it, you will regret that later if you don’t fix it now.
