Last night we put the finishing touches on Peep’s new bike. Of course Peep’s new bike is one of my old bikes; we built up my old Gary Fisher Wahoo frame into a nice all around bike for my youngest kid. It’s probably just a hair to tall for her but she’s still growing and I’ve always preferred my frames to be on the big side. This weekend we’re going to ride over to the Silver Comet Trail and give it a proper shakedown.
Building this bike with my kid has been a great experience. Not only did it provide a lot of father daughter time it also allowed her to learn the basics of bicycle mechanics including how to use most of my tools. Photos to follow soon.
