Dan6061 Posted October 26, 2010 Report Share Posted October 26, 2010 This is my mate's (6ftmidget) Leeson that he built up while his Zenith get's rebuilt. All the parts are off the Zenith, hence the fairly modern spec! Enjoy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rago muffin Posted October 26, 2010 Report Share Posted October 26, 2010 haha looks fun! get some chain tension though I recogniseds it mk, is that chris's old frame??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan6061 Posted October 26, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 26, 2010 It is Chris' old frame, yeah. The tensioner does need sorting! The chain was tight to begin with, but it's all bedded in now and it's slackened off. Needs a seat too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ross McArthur Posted October 26, 2010 Report Share Posted October 26, 2010 Whack a old burst saddle on that and it will top it off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alanczik Posted October 26, 2010 Report Share Posted October 26, 2010 (edited) wow thats super cool...my like (i think the bike nides a saddle and maybe a lighter tyres ) Edited October 26, 2010 by alanczik Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
6ft-midget Posted October 26, 2010 Report Share Posted October 26, 2010 Thanks to Dan for taking these photos at like 1am haha. The bike rides lush, Definitely a brakeless beaut. It will have seat on it in a couple of days and also the tension will be sorted As for the tyres, the front is only single ply with the rear being dual. I find that the bigger tyres give extra bounce and confidence when 'bumping' off of surfaces. It's also lighter than the Zenith which is a bonus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkshire Dale Posted October 26, 2010 Report Share Posted October 26, 2010 mint, jus needs a spoke tensioner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skoze Posted October 26, 2010 Report Share Posted October 26, 2010 Tighten the chain, seat, and put some proper bars n' stem on it and i'll like it lots and lots and lots. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gandalf the Yellow Posted October 26, 2010 Report Share Posted October 26, 2010 good work lads, bike's looking shweeeet! it's good to see Chris' collection of frames hasn't all gone to waste and just sat there. I take it you'll be out for a ride soon then? Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
6ft-midget Posted October 26, 2010 Report Share Posted October 26, 2010 Once Dan's got his bike built up there's no reason why not. Really want to take this for a proper test round mk, so a ride is definitely needed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
