She's all done but I'm a bit undecided on tyres ... this was always supposed to be a 'new school' build of an early mid school bike. The front 1.9 tyre looked good but I couldn't find a high pressure 1.9 for the rear ... so I got a nice white 2.25 which is fat is f**k ... which rides really well but doesn't look as good ... so I'm still working on sorting this out.

As Len said, following my vocalised inner conflict as to what looks right,  '...you and those fukkin tyres!'

That looks so good! That front tyre does look a bit big I suppose, but there's always going to be a few little compromises where this sort of build goes down huh? Custom Riders did have some white/tan Odyssey paths in 2.1 when I looked a while back  :daumenhoch:

Love it Ed. Newschool in disguise indeed. You'll need to pump the tyres up and get a wider saddle for your far @rse mind........

Tyres do look a little chunky but still looks great... need to sort myself a new school ride sometime.  :daumenhoch:

Looks great, keep the fat tire.. just brings it into the present time rather than being a replica.. with the 28t gearing, hofman bars etc.. it all fits together nicely as new-school with a mid/old vibe.....

Catch up soon..
