I put together an old DK Signal this spring with old parts. And it’s been upgraded to my main ride this year. 19”TT compared to my 19.75 TT Big Daddy previously. I’m 5’10” also went brakeless for the summer.
Awesome color choice Kevin! Reminds me of the midschool Fly Suelo bikes. Great that you now have back brakes. Now to learn decades. I can help you along the way!👍
I'm riding a 20.5 fit mixtape and like it so far. Fit also has the shortcut frame that comes in 19.5-20.25 toptube, but the standover height is almost 9". But the shortcut frame is also on clearance for $220 (plus $30 if you want them to drill gyro tabs) could be a good option. Bike looks great!!
Ya, I had the frame in my garage, so just went for it haha. Looking forward to learning decades. I spent a little time today messing around trying to get the feel for it. Doesn’t seem too hard. Tips are welcome.
@@flatlandjourney don't be afraid to make the "leap" it's not a boomerang, it is literally about jumping up nice and steep over the head tube...those brakes will support you, no fear.

That sounds really cool. I'd love to see it. It's nice to switch it up from brakes to brakeless... then back again.

Ya man I would love some help with decades. Especially if you have tips on how to break it down into steps for learning it.

Nice! Where is the shortcut on clearance?
The bars are visiting chicago
Does this mean you're selling that S&M Dagger?
I sold the Dagger to a friend. It was a great frame.
The front wheel was just out of place. All I had to do was move it more to the right and it would stop touching the brake.
finally went bigger huh :)
decades are easy...it's all about having the balls to do them. rollies(rolling decade)....they scare me.
