Frankenbike Lives!
Thanks to the generosity of the MTBNJ community my brother now has a rideable mountain bike (unlike the Next that he was going to buy:drooling. Since I built it, I ‘m goin to give it a good thrashing at 6-mile before I turn it over to him. I have about $90 and a case of beer into it so far.
A big thanks to Clarkenstein who donated more than 75% of the bike (OK some beer was offered). Thanks also to DANSPANK and Miketrek6300 who sold me discounted parts, and to Kirt who donated (OK more beer offered) a fork that wound up not fitting (if anyone needs a Suntour XC with 7” of tube let me know, it’s nicer than the old old school RS Indy C that’s on it now:rofl.
Well here it is:
