If I had that sticking out in my garage, I'd be dead within the week.
Sick setup man!

Haaaaaa
Mine is coming along, this shot is about 2 years ago much more tools now and better lighting. Def not a dream garage but I can put 2 cars, beer, a bunch of bikes and maybe a moto in here! It's a work in progress...

Is that a functioning urinal? Is there a matching pot somewhere or is that what the white bucket is for?
Curious if it's a version of: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pittsburgh_toilet

i grew up right outside pittsburgh. when i moved away i was confused why houses didn't have that.
We have one in our walk-out basement, in a tiny unfinished shitter room next to our basement kitchen. I did not know it was a Pittsburgh thing, I never saw another one here in New England.
The urinal was an addition I did, a friend was demo'ing an old school and I grabbed it. It is functioning...
I didn't know you were a frame builder! I'd love to see moar; details, finished frames, closeup weld pron, etc.
I am not... yet. But it's going to happen.
These are from https://www.velocipedesalon.com/forum/f10/father-daughter-build-thread-53545.html
Chris is doing an amazing job documenting that build. His shop appears to be pretty dialed.
This thing is cool as hell!
except for the 0 length stem. those are sketchy as hell, especially for kids just learning to ride.
What? Why?
Both my boys are currently shredding around on Strider run bikes with 0 length stems and doing just fine.
have they tried a balance bike with a non zero length stem?
did you need to lengthen the top tube and steepen the seat angle as well?What I wanted to change about the strider was the head angleThing was steep!
just makes the bike unnecessarily squirrely, which is far from ideal considering you're trying to get a toddler to learn how to ride.
The lack if kiddo sized sticky rubber tires is sketchier than any imagined steering angle issue.

I found it squirrelly and was somewhat surprised given that we are trying to get kids to learn. Worked out ok in the end, but there were some moments...
Thought a less straight up and down head angle would be good too.
Ha! Those tires are very slippery. Another head scratcher.The lack if kiddo sized sticky rubber tires is sketchier than any imagined steering angle issue.

It’s a super wide 160 with normal camber, 5 cm of taper, 29cm waist width and a pretty soft tail. It’s a mix between a stiff Freeride nose and a soft park tail. I’m exploring shapes I can’t buy. I made a second one and it rides horribly, haha. Way too much carbon. The beginners luck was strong on the first one. I’m working on a third one now with abs sidewalls.
I disagree with 90% of the shit you post on this board but you have a functioning urinal in your garage.
So now I have to agree with everything you say because man rules.
fucker
well done
Looks kinda flexy
But the straight 6...
very cool. would love a deck with that kind of width. as a carving nerd, "conventional" shapes require some significantly forward binding angles (or risers) to avoid boot out. what i'm looking for doesn't exist outside custom builds. sounds like a fun hobby.
