The Bikeguide Barcode build-off thread

[Narcoleptic Insomniac]

That's a true classic.

I finally got my new Barcode today. It sounds like sand is in the seat/chain stays, the tubes are closed so it can't come out. Anyone else have this issue?

Here's my new Barcode!



It seems to be built better than my 2007 SFA it replaced. The BB and rearend tolerances are much better. On the SFA, the BB spacer was too short and didn't really function. The rear end length seems to be more dialed, to where I can actually use my nice Profile 3/8" to 14mm adapters. The SFA rear end was way too tight to run them on both sides.

Wow that brown bike is incredible

That is my dream bike. Good job.

My stem was 13 years old. I've been waiting. 👁

[LeonLikesToRock]

awesome, now give me your old Fit stem

[Saturday Night Special]

I actually have two of the Fit Series 2 stems. I got one from a local that beat the hell out of it with a hammer. My good one will probably replace it on my old bike.

Here's a current pic of my bike. I haven't had much time to do any riding other than around town with my 6 year old son. That should change soon now that winter is here. I usually drive to an indoor park. Maybe I'll actually scratch it.

Quite a bit of new parts.
-Odyssey Dugan pedals
-Tree OG sprocket
-T1 Cyclops stem

and I went back to my old Fly seat set up.

I picked this frame up off this site right before my last foot surgery. Had to trade my old 2014 for a 1911 .45 to give to my dad to repay him for the rent he spotted me after my short term was discounted more than I was told.  The wheels have been an ongoing project that I never could get true and only recently was able to get my friend to help fix my mistakes. I've had them since the 2014 frames started delivering.  The bars, cranks, and bottom bracket came from old bikes that o parted. The fork was the right price wrong color, but at least I can ride again.  The rest of the parts are new.

I've just located and purchased my first barcode frame.

2004 eurocode with seatstay mounts, I sold it 11 years ago and can't wait for it to arrive.

My last built. From 2015. Still have it. Ride it like 2 times a year.
Kinked chainlink included.
Original bob bars.
