1995 Holmes


I built this bike last year using a few old parts I've had since the early 90's and some others I had laying around the garage. It's got a 1" threaded front end, one of the last of the old boys. When I found the frame in San Diego a few years back it was built up complete with Landing Gear forks, generic 3pc cranks, Castillo Bars and a bunch of crappy parts. I bought the whole thing for 100 bucks. First thing I did was strip all the parts off and sell the forks to get my 100 bucks back. The Pitchforks I used I've had since 94, along with the ti seatpost and top half of the Pozi Stop. This bike rules. She's fast and loose.
