[Closed] Go on then, skit my garden!

Dandelions need sorting, get Mr Green Thumb onto it
Cage it too small for the dog
Fence needs painting
You hung the washing out, get the Mrs to do it next time, she will do a better job

Nice bike though,

edit: tyres - valves - logos - aligned - not

grass edging needs sorting

edit: tyres - valves - logos - aligned - not

they are, sort of, the logo's are opposite the valves,(ish)

+1, also custom and practice to align your cranks with the seat tube for photos and position your pedals horizontally 😉

Quick Q, which brake levers do you use and are they the same make?

The one on the right looks like it has a shifter?

Nice build, looks like a lot of fun to ride.

Dog needs a lot of walks.

Is that a live dog or a ghost dog? It looks a bit unearthly.

[i]+1, also custom and practice to align your cranks with the seat tube for photos and position your pedals horizontally [/i]

I disagree, cranks should be horizontal but with the driveside crank at the front so that the logo is the right way up.

Dracs right.

I think your tensioner is the wrong way( but that's just me),there is a giraffe's neck worth of spacers.
Oh, and the seat looks too far forward.
Apart from that,it's lovely 🙂

Is it necessary to have a chainstay protector on a singlespeed?

Flat pedals and drops? 😕

Nice looking bike apart from that, and your garden's in a lot better state than mine 🙂

I'm also wondering whether a steel frame needs a more traditional bottle cage than a composite one...

Spacers!
seat too far forward, Id rotate the bars down and raise the shifers brake levers more.
QR - wtf?
wheels dont match never mind tyre logos should be at the valves
flat pedals - dear me.
need to sort the dandelions

other than that nice bike

Garden: dog needs walking more.

bike: Loads of bar spacers + lots of seatpost + saddle all the way forward on the rails = confused 😕

Is that the right frame size for you?

Personally, I find all of these modern plastic bottle cages ruin the classic lines of a steel frame. King Cage would be/is my choice.

There seems to be a dog in the main triangle.

Gear hub = one shifter brake, one normal brake. Versa's I assume?

Flat pedals and drops? 😕

+1

Flat pedals and drops?

...indeed, toe clips, straps and nailed on cleats are what you want on that

In no particular order:

Dog is a bit over weight still but has lost 10kg since we got him 4 years go. He was very fat.

Versa shifters

Loads of spacers so I can mess about with stem height for a bit before finally omitting with a hacksaw.

I like flats and want to get on a bike and ride it, not dress for the occasion then go.

Saddle has slid back a bit already.

Dog needs an exercise wheel for his cage.

Fence needs painting.

bike: Loads of bar spacers + lots of seatpost + saddle all the way forward on the rails = confused

Is that the right frame size for you?

Probably a tad small but I have very long legs and a short body.

Saddle now in a bit, stem dropped 15mm

Could do with. Slightly shorter stem

Dog's over-exposed.

Valve caps?

V nice ninja build like the jap maple too.

The rest of them are moaning that the dog is under exposed!

Shit.

Grey bed sheets?
Nice bike.

Mcmoonter has it. 🙂

Plastic Planters? I mean - how could you?

I hate that Cupressus tree thing at the back left, its horrid. Get something more interesting like an Acer or Silver Birch or flowering Cherry perhaps.

The whole seat, stem, hoods set up is wrong but no doubt you would discover that as soon as you rode it?
