Found an old Orange P7 with sliding dropouts in my size on FB covered in Hope parts which fortunately coincided with my other bike getting trashed by a forklift at work. So I stuck a load of nice bits from old bike on and bought a Brother steel fork and a 38 chainring and here it is.
Usually have a Jack the Rack on the front which I highly recommend but since I’ve got bolts may get something that holds more weight. I also had plans to do 26 to 27.5 conversion due to sliding dropouts and having some Hope hubs lying around but in the end cba and stuck some Gravelkings on.
This bikes definitely too small for me if you couldn’t tell by the seat and spacers under the stem but most bikes are too small for me.
If you actually care the bits I put on where
Gravelkings SK 26”
Spurcycle bell (only one worth having, I’ve tried most of them)
Brother steel gravel fork
Salsa Rustler Handlebar
Hope 20deg riser stem
Reverse components can holder, because I do drink and ride

Looks ideal.
That’s well cool. Looks like it’s about my size to be honest!
