I found this bike totally mangled up behind our local subway train station. I loved the look of the frame so I had to try and save it. It had a stuck seatpost that I dissolved with caustic soda. Pretty much everything but the frame has been replaced on this bike. Swipe to the end for the "before" picture. I made a whole series on this project on my IG account www.instagram.com/retro_bike_love_stockholm incase interested.

Great job on the rescue! The front rack is interesting, details please?
I fxcking love that this is a department store bike and you did what you did. More of that, everyone. (Imho) More of that.
