29′er Build Update III

Posted on June 16, 2011 by mbudd

A real Nail Biter this one. Go Bruins.
All the bits cleaned up after filing.
Not sure what to call that joint, though it should be plenty strong enough.
Pretty welds that will be buried under a gusset.
So much welding on this front triangle.
Don't adjust your screen, the frame is a 29'er with a 12" center to center seat tube.
Boat Tail?
The point of all the funkyness here is to get a really tight rear triangle on a 29'er with maximized standover. Chainstay assembly awaits.
