This started life as a generic Chinese amazon bike, ran it as a single for a couple years, mostly only using it when my other bike was out of commission. Over the winter I decided to use it as a starting point to build a decent fixie, at this point the frameset, and front rim + brake are the only original components left on the bike.
The frame’s a hi-ten POS, but it’s perfectly serviceable and I don’t see myself replacing it until I wreck it, or have literally nothing else to spend money on. Still wanting the bike to have a bit more personality, I covered up the ‘BIGSHOT’ logos by sticker bombing the main triangle. Should make for a decent bit of workshop decoration when I eventually retire it.
