So freaking cool (even if it looks too small to hold a 36" wheel).

four or five years ago there was a thread may have been in Singlespeed forum, of a guy with a paper bag on his head (with a face drawn on it and holes cut) in a step by step photo documentary of him cutting down this old Bianchi frame, and turning it into a bong it was great then the second to last photo was of him hittin' it, then the last picture the drawn face on the brown paper bag was changed to a bigass smile - classic

tried finding it' ....nada

Not a 36er...

I also don`t understand why there is usually a reference to "bongs" or things like that when we post up stuff...
Now if someone is seriously thinking about a 36er, well perhaps that person should put the bong down quickly before he thinks it into existence....
Hmmmm...a Smoke 36er?????????????????????????????????????????????? ?

You have any wheels that big? That would be like a 22" chain stay and about a 50" wheel-base........forget about a fixie in that config. unless you were a giant. Now if it had gears and super good brakes......what you'd have is a "Truck-bike".

Not once have I seen smoke billowing from the shed. These are professional artists with an eye on their carbon tread print. I wonder if all the welding fumes are recycled somehow for the paint?

Way to blow it for everyone you idiots. I hope one of you gets your bottom lip caught in the band saw. How much more uncouth could you get? You want more trails to ride? Keep advertising you dumb ****s.

What just happened?

Nice work, guys! Looks like you have that fixture figured out a lot better than I could. It gave me fits trying to build a sloping TT.

Congrats for supporting PMBAR. I'm hoping to do something similar for PAS really soon.
