Oldschool frame test

Recommended Posts

Hello! I built a streety 26" double disc based on a retro-geo frame (Atom Trial '04). Despite long rear end (405 cs and -15 bb height) it rides comfy enough.
 

 


Bashed some parts while bunny hopping: fork's steerer tube (5 yrs old), rear lever blade.

Rear disc brake is super stressful for a generic disc mounts, had to reinforce it with DIY brake booster connected to v-brake mount (it improves braking performance when wheel is spinning backwards). This 2mm zinc plated steel cracked after 1.5 years (previous one made from cheap 3mm alu lasted half an hour :)).
