Little Alu de Mayo build up.

[sparkybhp]

I’ve had this frame in storage awhile, it came as part of a job lot which included a Kona Cinder Cone frame which I’ve since built for my son.
This de Mayo is small at 50cm and I’d say it’s never been built up before, showing only wear from storage.
It’s one of those that I realised I had enough parts laying around to put this together in some shape or form. Not too sure quite what direction it’ll take as yet, but here it is so far:

It seemed a shame to have it sat around doing nothing so let’s see what it turns out like, and yes, I know the seatpost is too long - it just hangs in my bike stand easily like this.

Here we go, had a bit of time this afternoon so bashed this out.

Went single speed for easy-ness and everything just sort of fell into place. It’s actually really nice to ride and with the long stem and seatpost it fits me fine.

I bet that goes like a scalded cat. When is the next classic steel roadie coming. I may be able to help

Haha, no - the madness must stop, I’m rapidly running out of room! I’ve got the Alan Richards stripped down and waiting on a suitable donor so I can build that up, but that’s got to be it for now.
But also..
What have you got?

Now with a Spinergy front wheel thanks to a cheap fixie project pick-up yesterday.
