    Biking

    A classic build with a modern frame from Temple Cycles. Maybe a bit too retro for Xbiking, but I think it highlights perfectly the philosophy of this sub, built whatever bike with whatever part and you can create anything!

    Video of the build:

      Looks classy. Whole thing got that cohesiveness. Personally would love to see more retro builds here but like you it feels slightly adjacent. Post it anyway!

      A modern frame dripped out in classic parts is true xbike behavior, same thing as a rock hopper covered in Paul and a 1x.

      Dude this is beautiful, great job. I wish I’d see more of this on here. Nice to use the knowledge of parts to put together something tasteful

      TA Cyclotourist/Stronglight 49D possibly the greatest cranks ever (with the Stronglight edging it)

      Gorgeous bike. What is rear wheel removal like with the rear facing drop out?
