Mohawk Frameworks #2

My second handmade bike, I made this frame in 2 days and then rode it fully loaded 3,000km down New Zealand and it didn't break. It's also been mountain biking and didn't break. When the paint wears away to bare metal I just add some new patches of color.

Frame:
Mohawk Frameworks Thugs Mansion. This frame is around 48cm. I designed it around trying to get as much space as possible for a frame bag, and decent toe clearance with the front wheel, while still fitting an incredibly small person (me). This is what came out of that hypothesis.

Fork/Headset:
Ritchey 1" threadless + random polo bike fork (repainted)

Crankset/Bottom Bracket:
Ultegra cranks

Pedals:
MKS lambda

Drivetrain/Cog/Chainring/Chain:
38t Ultegra inner road ring

Handlebars/Stem:
Soma eagle + specialized stem

Saddle/Seatpost:
Turbo saddle + BBB seatpost

Brakes:
Avid BB7 (front) Sturmey archer coaster (rear)

Front Wheel/Hub/Tire:
Shimano 26er dynamo wheel / Schwalbe big apple

Rear Wheel/Hub/Tire:
Sturmey archer 2-speed kickback coaster brake wheel - 700c

Accessories:
Homemade rack / hardware store basket
