This Space for Rent

A monorail thing

A monorail thing

I dragged a thing out of the basement because I needed a test machine to put some miles on a rack/fork/lowrider combo before sending them off to their owner. 700c wheels, because that’s what the fork is built for, and some horrible panaracer 35mm commuter tires. *Fortunately the fork is just flexy enough so that it takes a lot of the harshness out of those tires, and the only thing wrong with the build rn is that the handlebars are too damn high and my back starts hurting about 6 miles into a ride.

I had to adjust the rack (by brazing on new fork crown stays and splicing the legs to stretch them out to match) to get some clearance between the fender boss and the tires. So that’s why it looks cruddy. The rest of it is just an artifact of it being a rolling parts bin.
