Old barn find I breathed new life in because gravel bikes are too expensive so fuck it I'll make my own.
Just waiting for the last parts since i lost some plastic thingamabobs I need for the STIs.
Sometimes I think I should keep my bike shop like surgically clean so I don't lose the small, crucially important plastic bits in the mess of parts and old boxes but alas, if your personal shop doesn't look like you could outfit a frame with parts you find on the ground, is it even a shop?
i think they mean they like old steel frame road bikes that usually have these kind of horizontal dropouts but they want the more modern ones like these vertical dropouts
