I am majorly impressed with what you did here. I'm going to try doing the same. I was looking at cyclocross bikes, but the prices knocked my socks off. I can't afford the "stock" bikes. Your idea is awesome. Your pictures explained a lot to me. I am majorly impressed with what you did here. I’m going to try doing the same.

Looks great! I am going a similar route, I found an old '93 PEUGEOT 'select' in the trash at a construction site right behind my apartment. aside from a few paint chip / non-harmful rust spots that are gonna get grinded down and repainted with a powder coat, the frame is in mint condition. Now the trick for me is finding suitable parts for it, new rims, new fork/stem/drop bars, new bottom bracket, new drivetrain... I'm looking to put a SRAM P5 or a SRAM DualDrive hub on the rear and have either a single speed style setup or a internal gear/external gear setup. What I am looking for in the future (not yet there but when I have enough experience) I think I would like a rohloff speedhub. But not entirely sure how well it will take a beating.

Have fun man. Very cool, I’m planning to buy an hybrid but I should set it up with cyclo tyres like yours. Have fun man.
