The frame is quite big. I rode it when I was a teenager. The other bikes I own have smaller frames. This is my bad weather fixie. No need for dyno-lighs (have one to attach and hate the dyno sound) and rack. Riding with this bike is relaxed crusing.

Nice old frame. Not a Paris Gallibier though. Condor is still going in Grays inn Road in London. Chap called Tom Board used to make some of thier frames in the 80s. Look him up.

your seat is WAY too forward, frame a little big? it’s sad you chucked that generator head light. i would have kept it even with the conversion. in retrospect that mustard paint could have worked. but i’m glad you kept the original bars.

Yeah like Dijon mustard. Dig the conversion.

like the conversion, but not pleased with the altering of the paint. That original paint looked awesome and unique

Nice transition but the guys on Old Ten Speed are lamenting one less ten speed. How many gears did you use when it was a ten? I used to use only two and my kids hardly ever shift I think I will convert their bikes and they will only notice they go faster with a lighter bike with sexier lines. Thanks
