That crusty zone by the seat tube / seat stay / top tube junction looks fantastic! Keep crustifying it! Bake it over a campfire! Lay fresh decals over the killer patina!

Love what you did to the frame! 🔥 Sick looking sticker bomb on the fork, as well! Not easy to make it look cohesive and natural, but you did a great job! 😎🤘

No mock ups for me. I like to envision the outcome and slap it together. Make my modes on the fly!

Didn't fancy getting the chainstays dimpled at the same time as the disc conversion to allow bigger rubber? On the subject of mockups, I never have but as my builds get a bit more out there I'm increasingly finding it takes me longer to get used to the finished article. Next build I'm defo going to try it out.

It isn't rust causing stuck seatpost it's galvanic corrosion. Aluminum oxide forms on the seatpost and expands. It's an extremely hard substance a 9 out of 10 right below the hardness of a diamond.

Maybe do a controlled patina then spray over with matte varnish as a protective to prevent it going too far and rusting through in time? A bit like rust with love 😊 ...Forgot to mention, you could used transparent plastic primer first as a keying agent before using the varnish spray

All my mockups are done in my head, I have a wonderful imagination and because of my autism type I have calibrated eyes that just know what fits and where. That bike looks bloody awesome👌

Lovely frame reminds me of my pink 456 we had to burn the seat post out and the frame broke in the back so we did the same little brace as you did

2 part video for me rather than an hour. I always 2x really long videos. I don’t know if that does anything negative to your engagement

Does anyone know where to get custom bike frame logo stickers? I have an old bike that doesn't have stickers anymore and I want to restore it. It's a niche brand and there's nothing online for it.

Do they actually ban for saying the Y word?! [copy no reply] Thou shalt not utter the word which begins with the forbidden letter, that penultimate character of the English lexicon, lest the mods ban thee and all which thou carest for, thou would-be sinner whom shall have turned traitor to all thine siblings in no, thou would-be doer of evil in the expression of such a wretched word, thee whom we cherish the camaraderie of now in lieu of your disclosure of the word which the mods of this glorious sub hath made illicit. For sooth, none shall use words which contain such a dreadful letter lest we fall to the side of evil and find ourselves traitors to all which once was held dear in the hearts of our selves and our siblings in no. Remember the tenets, mine friend. Be strong, be brave, be true. Best of luck in your adherence to the no
