what frame is this?

The frame is an Octane 1 Sour. I bought the frame off of FB Marketplace and the guy threw in an SR Suntour Zeron 35 air fork for $200 total. I later upgraded the fork to a Lyrik that I bought for $250. It's been a fun low-budget bike.

Nice piece Beno. I'm glad you're alive (wait, haven't I already said this?). 220 to 145? Your heart loves you. Congrats on that and for finding a two-wheeled tribe in a place you never would have gone looking for one. If I can find a reason to pass thru Patagonia I'd love to turn some pedals and empty some cans with you and your crew.

Anytime. Door is always open for friends who want to ride bikes and fǔck off and have fun outside in the sun.

I just saw this article this morning and came here to post it! Very cool.

Here’s a few pics of a new steel frame I’m working on. I’m undecided if it will be run SS just yet. However, I don’t feel like buying a shifter and derailleur and I already have the ss drivetrain…

Ready for paint
