Hi there! This is not my bike. It belongs actualy to my younger brother. Three years ago, he left his previous bike unlocked at school and it got stolen. My parents bought him a replacement bike at Costco; a shitty, cheap, aluminium hybrid bike. He rode it all year long for the past three years with too sporadic maintenances. In june, the bike had reached a summun of "unridability". I decided to strip all the rusty components off and to built for him a good looking and working bike that he would be proud to use within every weather conditions. So here it is...
