Charge Cooker 29er SS

[neebsta]

Answering my WTB ad was this cast iron beauty - it weighs the same as HMS Illustrious or a small nation. I have started a programme of weight reduction.

There was a purpose to buying this - chuck on the back of our camper van care free.

It's a Taiwan made Tange Infinity frame - I expect these and Singular probably come from the same factory?

It is heavy, it's my Charge!

Gorgeous though even if a bit heavy. What plans do you gave for it then? And. What tyres are they?

The geometry is great, I really like the steel tubing in these big wheelers - looks perfect. Has a real retro feel and look to it.

I have swapped the bars, stem, grips and seat collar. Yellow Zip Ties replaced the black clippy things.

Remaining changes maybe a set of black middleburns and Uno ring and a Brooks saddle.

The tyres are WTB and they are standard issue - I'll get the model name later!

Re:

Maybe the big letters saying PROWLER SL could be as clue.

It looks neat and tidy in the picture, I assume that's pre-alterations.

Big letters that couldn't be read as I didn't have my contact lenses in :roll:

Looking good.

Rigid steel Singlespeed 29er is such a great format, and this tricks alle the right boxes.

Enjoy!!

Replaced for any reason or just the constant chase for the dream bike?
