It actually looks pretty nice :shocked:, what does it ride like?

think it weighs about the same as the boat anchor, only had a little pedal on it but it feels pretty good to ride, plenty room on it and doesn't feel a million miles away from a new school bike.

had to do a fair bit of work on this, i removed a couple of plates that had been welded on the rear dropouts up to the brake mounts. i also removed a set of canti mounts of the forks. i made the z rim from an old 4 spoke acs z wheel and the front pegs were drilled out to fit a bolt that fitted the forks. i then made the decal for the chainwheel and made the z rim decals. the paintjob on the frame isn't great, i just did it with some rattlecans.
