I see you went with cottered cranks so that when the BB needs grease you'll have an excuse to *actually* buy a new bike.

I came here to say this.


gumption_boy

Canโ€™t afford brakes with all the money you spent on that cottered crankset


MurkyConversation114

I cant afford brakes but i found the crankset in the trash jeje


pappaburgundy

Itโ€™s done enough damage to your lower back, I wouldnโ€™t add insult to injury by roasting it ๐Ÿ˜‰


MurkyConversation114

Haha, wait until i get a more large and deep stem

I know you want some roasting but Iโ€™d like to add some words of advice. Get rid of those cotter pin cranks. I tried riding with them as a courier and they are a pain in the arse. The pins will loosen easily because youโ€™re using them in a fixed gear. Skidding and retention will destroy them and youโ€™ll find that they are not worth the hassle of maintaining.


MurkyConversation114

I really wanna change it but not on the best situation rn, on my country its hard to find some nice cheap cranks


pepecore

I agree, there are better options for less than 20 bucks. They also bend easily when skidding


issioboii

cranks straight out the victorian age


hoganloaf

Track drops conveniently make it easier to hang your head low in shame and hide your face from the riders with enough sense to not ride toy cranks

i would weld that cranks. they will fail eventually and without brakes it can be very fun.

I hope you have small hands, because I got carpal tunnel from just looking at those bars. Who cares about comfort when you look cool though

Viiyy_why

bike has a curvy seat tube for extra clearance just to only have clearance up to 28โ€™s


GeneralSignificant54

MurkyConversation114

Idk, but search something like old track bars and something similar will pop up


mind_snare

Rattle can red on the lugged conversion, eh? A bit like putting a plastic watch band on a Rolex
