i haven't made one on there since.

[FreaK]

i've had a new idea recently, for a bare bones super rugged all around 'bike'.
Something that could work well as a public utility, a tool for the population at large.

Frame: .039 wall 4130, tt, dt, ht, st all the same diameter, sealed tubes (no open vent holes)
Fork: built in rake tapered 4130, forged dropouts, threadless, internally threaded for top cap, that fits crankset.
Bottom Bracket: mid - 19mm
Cranks: 4130 2pc, with freewheel thread like a middleburn.
Chainrings: 30t heat treated steel

Pedals: ideas?

Chain: 1/8" stainless
Cogset: heat treated steel
Hubs: g-sport
Spokes: straight guage stainless
Rims: 26" laminated beechwood clincher
Tubes: sealant filled
Tires: 1.25 grooved slicks

Brakes: ideas? i was thinking fixie, but even then it would be hard to get many people on a fixie without at least a front brake.

Seatpost: built in, sealed (so no water gets in the seattube)
Saddle: either brooks style or macneil style, not sure yet

Headset: ideas?

Stem/Handlebars: 1 piece sealed ends, 15degree sweep, rubberized.
Brake Levers: would be built into the bars

extras: all steel parts parkerized, only one size of wrench needed for headset compression, bb, pedals and wheels. same tool to remove front and back sprockets.

the point: something dead simple dead tough, and fairly cheap, to last a very very long time, even without any maintenance whatsoever.
