Frankendork:Fixed Gear Tall Bike by Geekhouse
Written by Boston Biker on Apr 25Geekhouse bikes front man Marty (thats their logo down in the right hand corner check them out) put together this sweet as hell tall bike. I am digging the green/yellow spray job, as well as the clean lines. Nothing says “man about town” than a bright green/yellow tall bike.
So I built a pursuit tall bike… I literally built the whole bike from start to finish in about two days. Thanks to Mark B, Buckley, Dan StG, Logan, and Pete S for helping me with everything this past Sat. We were literally on a mission to get frame and parts all rattle-canned and ready to go. It was kind of crazy because the weather Sat was beautiful, then crazy thunderstorms rolled in and there were lightening flashes going on in the background while we were trying to paint it. I decided to call the bike Frankendork, and I really felt like a mad scientist welding this thing together. A lot of the tubing was from scrap or extra lying around the shop, but the front is double butted deddacchi, meaning it’s probably one of the nicest build tall bikes I’ve ever seen. Anyway, I hope everyone gets a kick out of it. Thanks!
