First bike :) PUCH touring bike



Hey everyone 



Here is the first bike i am going to be doing ! I picked it up the other day at a local market. 


is a PUCH touring bike (not sure what model) in a really nice blue colour unfortunately it does not have any wheels with it so i will be putting some deep section rims on it and some track hubs. I am currently thinking either red rims with whitewall tyres or white rims with black tyres and red hubs

Okay so first blog post ever 


Welcome to Sam's Bikes this is a little blog i have set up to run alongside a little business i am setting up documenting what i do. What Sams Bikes does is take vintage bikes that have 'seen better days' and bring them back to life and right up to date by converting them to fixies or singlespeed retro bikes with a new lease of life.


I will also do custom builds for people wanting something specific which will also be documented on here as i go 


I hope that you enjoy the blog 


Sam
