Had to cut the fork and reset the star nut also; there was a little nub cuz i lowered the stem. Black spacers thanks to Andrea's bike. Eventually gonna get a red seat and maybe a smaller chain ring or bigger cog to put on the other side... aand new pedals. so a lot left... kinda. THEN I CAN GET MY ROAD BIKE!

This is my first Fixed Gear built from the ground, up. The parts are pretty cheap but they work well. Very low budget. Got the frame hookup from Jeron Mendoza, and about $200 put into parts and paint into my bike. Pretty much done with it. If anything, I'll get a new seatpost and bottom bracket. Love, Peace, and Adobo Grease! ZOMB!

This bike is a wonderful daily beater and it's fairly quick on the flats. Hills and climbs on the other hand, this thing is a tank compared to the new road bikes. This bike was built under a small budget and it's pretty nice for how much I've spent! Big props to my dad for helping me with the build. My road bike should be featured on ST soon enough.
