Built this up out of the parts box from pure boredom. Single speed roadster/cruiser style thing, based around an old Sunn Notion frame that Prezza on here very kindly donated to me a while ago.

Fake CK headset also kindly karma'd to me last year by KondratievsBike, in exchange for a donation to the Air Ambulance, the P2's were a bargain find at my local charity recycle place a while back, saddle off my Dad, 'bars and chainset from another charity recycle shop... etc etc...

Loving the look of it, and the feel of the ride, it's proper roadster upright and solid, but pretty light as the wheels are my super best ones, with lightweight rims and Hope RS Mono hubs. Single speeded it too, with a road mech, as my SS tensioner was just utter crap in the end, and I wasted days trying to make it work! 105 short cage mech, bit of cable attached through the barrel adjuster and bolted under the clamp, adjusted it up so chain all in line, and away we went!

Have called it the Bruiser Cruiser, as there's some black & blue going on.... 8)

D'awwww, Evie is a babe, I'd happily catch the 'rona from her!

Bike looks alright too ;)

Cheers! It was just a fun concept that was nice to get finished.

Really out in the sticks here, and sure there is no danger of catching anything, but 'tis very scary times. Just needed to get out of the house and see that there was still a world out there... 8)
