I'm in Love with a Tranny

[Hentaiboy]

Brought this bad girl back from the US. It was a struggle getting her into the country and she kinda fell to pieces, but I'm going to build her up again...

 

[Damienp]

Yes! Been waiting for one of these to show up.

Adjustable chainstay (I think they call it the slot machine) so you can switch from geared to SS without using a tensioner, and also for travelling / breaking down the bike into smaller sections. I think...

That photo just looks like a whole pile of fun!
Let us know how she rides. I've read good things.

YES!!!! I've been lusting over these for ages. Please don't use those tubes...theyre crazily heavy...I know weights not thaaaat important but rolling weight is probably where you can drop a fair bit of weight cheaply.

Sweet lord in heaven. That frame looks awesome. Is there a distributor for them in AUS? Or some way I could look at one. I'm looking for a new HT frame for my current bike...
