Finished the bike for my mother-in-law
- Garro.
Oh my Mr. Garro. Sweet one that bike, hope moms likes it. If she doesn't I bet my wife would. Very well done.
She's going to love it - I got her a boat anchor Sun cruiser 15 years ago, and it's too heavy now.Quote:

This thing is going to be a family heirloom long after I'm gone.

Welcome back. I thought Trumps intentions were to keep all the undesirables on the other side of the wall?
They did their best........tore our truck apart, or, I should say, made us do it while the belittled us and then made a woman & a guy in a wheelchair re-laod their truck while angry muscled guys watched and gave us shit.Quote:

It's a dichotomy we live within where to be fair the powers that be have to make obvious innocents bare the burden too. Glad you made in back in. Andy.
You are 100% NOT allowed to photograph the border crossingsQuote:

When I'm not thinking, I'm thinking about thinking:
Thinking about resolutions bike wise:
1: No BB shells under 73mm again unless a NOS unit is supplied and made for appropriate width tires of the era.
2: No OLD's of under 135 except special cases (see #1)
3: I will make bikes with rear spacing of 135mm and Boost 148mm with appropriate cranks
4: 440 ATC on rigid forks max
5: No curved blade forks with discs - just no.
6: Make a run of rigid MTB's along the lines of the MB-1 with lugged forks, 1.125" top tubes, 1.25" down tubes and rim brakes
7: Mountain Cruisers = YES
8: Frames & forks will be priced "No Paint" but I can facilitate paint, but 1st I'll be PIF on my frame work & you pay the painter - I'll still be glad to built it for you if you choose.
9: I'll lace wheels for people again separate of bike purchases as I have made time for that.
10: Fully rigid bikes will be made with a 1.125" head tube, as they should be.
11: Modern MTB parts and road parts shall not mix.
12: Rigid forks shall be 9mm QR
13: Rigid forks with frames only.
14: I build for 120mm travel forks max.
15: I build for 3.0" tires max.
16: NO BUILD QUEUE - one bike at a time.
17: NO DEPOSITS - one bike at a time.
18: All shipping of anything to anywhere paid by client.
More later as I jell my "new" business model, as after the next bike, I have no orders here at Coconino Cycles for the 1st time in 14 years.

And next we have.........
- Garro.
Except #13. I'd like to be grandfathered in for a fork. I would've ordered one at the time for both frames, but can't afford one at the moment. LOL.Quote:
