The Revolution Has Arrived

About a year after my return from Europe I have finally managed to reconstruct Termiten's perfect single speed brake handlebar configuration. Armed with an old pair of handlebars, a hacksaw and a couple of Deore brake levers I picked up in Berlin for a song I rebuilt and changed her from a somewhat ordinary looking ex road bike to a completely customed single speed the likes of which Sydney has never seen before. A few tweaks are still needed to get total functionality but they're on their way and she's a very pretty looking conversion. I think we could be seeing copycats springing up all over this city and if we don't, well, she'll be unique then.
