I’m currently in the process of making up an old bike I found in hard rubbish, to replace the hybrid my mother currently owns (and doesn’t ride enough) in Tasmania.
I thought the step-through would be perfect.
The white wheels are probably a little much, and making it a fixie is kind of funny - considering it will be my Mum riding it - and also considering Tassie’s hills.
It still needs a front brake, a coat of clear paint and some new pedals, and then it’ll be ready to send.
I love the idea of building up a bike for your Mum … that’s very cool.
I do have to ask though … if she already has a bike and isn’t riding it are you sure it’s worth sinking time and money builder her a fixie, if the roads are hilly where she rides? I don’t see the point … Unless it’s a bike you want to ride when you visit your Mum.
