Just brought out of retirement. I bike commuted for years but had to quit riding after a stroke. Many years have gone by and now my children are learning to ride bikes and I want to get on the road with them. I sold my touring bike long ago, but this frankenbike is a great ride for bombing around the city. Hoping my kids might find the joy in cycling that I used to have. They think my bike is ugly.

What the fuck is going on with those handlebars and where can I get some?
Cranks aren’t level and your tire logos are not indexed to the valve stems which are not perfectly vertical either sheesh /s
No fenders? Are you a sunny day only kind of commuter? Haha. Sweet ride seriously.
Fitting that the bike is orange because that stem is longer than a giraffe’s neck.
Honestly, if you get rid of the storage rack on the back tire and upgrade the handle bars to a gravel/mtn bike type it’ll be solid and your kids might ride it around.
