Diamant (BEL) Fixed Gear convert

I bought this frame for only 20 € on Ebay. Sandblasted and Repainted and replaced the tubing stickers. Before I had never built a bike, not even really repaired one, in other words.. I had no idea. The BB threads are Destroyed, so I had to work with repair bearings. With a lot of work, sweat, some blood and a lot of luck almost everything worked :) and still works, soon 2 years later. Until now I had to replace only the crank. The first was just a generic crank, but even that was not bad and was not replaced due to a defect. Often called undercover bike it is probably my cheapest (edit: not any more. It got a fucking ChrisKing headset ) but also my favorite bike.
