More Info:
Build for my nephew as a bike to commute. All the parts used were around in the basement for some years now, waiting for a reasonable use. My first attempt to manufacture fenders out of flat aluminum went, lets say "OK". Paintjob done on fork and the rack with graffiti spray can went surprisingly well. The decision to leave the frame rosty was made before the parts came together. I was hoping the bike will not be very attractive to thieves. In the end the whole "composition" turned out to be very flashy anyway. Well, you make decisions and you learn.
