this is my first mixte style frame. its set up with front and rear Sturmey Archer drum brake hubs. the front has a dynamo and the rear is an 8 speed internal. shifts a lot better than i thought it would and the drum brakes have excellent stopping power.
my little brother wanted to build his own bicycle frame with my guidance. its a tig welded fixed gear frame. the fork crown is the new "paris-brest" model from pacenti cycles. sorry for the not so stellar photos. the camera im using right now is not great.
