custom Brew frame from a framebuilding class in December 2020. it was my gravel bike for a long time, then I retired it and at some point the yellow powder coat got really fucked up, so I stripped it and applied gun bluing which is the finish you see here (clearly I did not apply enough clear coat but the rust is kinda a vibe imo). originally built it up as a trackpacking rig but then it got really cold so I threw the narrow risers on and it is currently my commuter. it had sliding Paragon drops on it from the beginning, so converting this to fixed was really easy. thankfully I found some sweet 130mm VDS fixed hubs! still not sure whether to keep it like this or throw on some drops and brakes and ride it as a single speed cross whip..
