Danny Boy (DIY Frame)
« on: May 05, 2014, 04:42:27 AM »
Hi!. my name is Daniel Graglia I'm from Córdoba City, Argentina.
what you'll see next is a DIY frame i made with my own specs and design
I met flatland when i was almost 11 years old, now i'm 27 and what maybe one of the best things an amateur flatlander could wish, is have his own frame. and so it's for me. i did it without knowledge of mechanical but with great passion for BMX Flatland. my frame for now is called "Danny Boy"

Danny Boy frame was produce with steel tubes SAE 1010 and welded with electrode welding so it's a kind of heavy weight but normal for me that i rode old school frames for long time.
I been inspired on classic flatland trend.
I was looking for some with very space on down tube and up tube, ends is short 'cause i'm a shorter person and it goes with TT lenght :)
It's a 18" TT (integrated headset), 74.5° HA, 72° SA, 12.1" ends, standover is 8.3", Mid Bottom Bracket, and his weight is 2800g.
I mitered tubes with a program that help me a lot, BB and Head was build up by a random turner.
Next i will learn is turn! (hahah)
