Alright chappies?!
I have an American friend who has just survived blood clots in his heart and lungs, though very almost didn’t. He’s on blood thinning meds and has been told to be active. He has had been working himself into the ground, to get a phd, and to qualify to be able to stay in the country after his student visa runs out. this meant doing the work of two teachers, convening lecturer union meetings, exam boards, international conferences. He has no money, his dad bankrupted himself because he got sick and didn’t have medical insurance. He is the sweetest natured smartest guy and a bit of a hero to me. He is huge.
I reckon over 20stone, he makes ton look like kylie minogue. If i was to build him a bike on the cheap for around town, would it actually be able to take his weight?
I have a 456 frame and some spare disc and bars etc. I’d need to get wheels and cranks and tyres and (rigid) forks any recommendations for strong stuff that is regularly in the classifieds?
I just think of the saddle and seat post and think ‘oh dear’
Cheers
