M-Gineering photogallery


randonneur/audax/commuter/etc bicycle



On-One Midge bar


2 x 10 V downtubeshifters (indexed!)


M-gineering headbadge


matching handmade stem


57mm reach brakes with sufficient clearance for a decent tyre and mudguards

horizontale padden
Horizontal dropouts, so you could do a fixed or hubgear winter project




Frames for Rohloff hubs are also popular


Reardropout with OEM adapter

excenter
bottombracket excentric to tension the chain


The shifter will not fit a dropbar, the aerobars were a hindrance too, so the shifter has it's own stub



hs66 rando
SRM bike. Randonneur with Son dynamo, Rohloff hub and Magura hs66 brakes. The carrier is adapted to take the Burley trailer

S&S koppeling

S&S coupling: unscrew the large nut  (there is another one in the toptube) to split the frame in two halves
 

reisfiets met S&S koppelingen
travelbike with S&S couplers and a (mainly) Deore groupset (ca 13 kg)

koppeling voor de achterkabel
Quick disconnect to undo the brakecable without tools for splitting the frame


singlespeed frame
Singlespeed frame. Based on the geometry of the Inbred, but with a much taller headtube to accomodate the taller Dutchmen without ugly spacers. And with an unicrown fork and shotin seatstays, the frame looks a bit more rounded
columbus max
Columbus Max racing frame: A very early M-gineering (from '92!) refurbished for a new lease of life

another repainted frame
Same frame, but now with a replaced downtube and new paint. (tube was dented with a stone launched with a cyclomower)

SRM bike
Luxuriuos touring bike, with 853 frmae, Rohloff, Son and Magura's, Cane Creek suspension post, Rotor crankset, double legged standard, hot and cold running water....


Derailleur geared touring bike
A normal touring bike with 853 frameset, XT parts and Tubus carriers. And a SON hubdynamo. Brakes are Frogleg canti's with fat Tektro brakelevers and extra levers on the bars.
The bike runs nicely on 40 mm Schwalbes, but there is room for extra air
stem mounted shifters
No bike is 'completely' normal here: Dura-Ace 9speed levers on a custom stemextension

just another SRM bike
Another touring bike, with the ubiquitous Son, Rohloff and Magura's. But now with Nitto bars and rack, a TA crankset, Hope headset, pump behind the seattube and Dlumotec and E6bz headlights. Frame is 853 with excenter and OEM1 Rohloff dropout.

orthopedic pedal extension
The LH SPD pedal is shimmed 5mm to compensate for a slight leglenght discrepancy

SS rubrail
paint protected from rubbing cables

custom headlight bracket
A custom bracket for the headlight fits beneath the Magura mounting

nog een srm

Another SRM bike with Son, Rohloff en HS66


vakantiefiets met rohloff
M-Gineering discovers straight bars;) And no SON or Magura in sight. But there is still a Rohloff.
Other bits are mostly Deore combined with steel tubular racks.

schuivende padden

Sliding dropouts to tension the chain and a Rohloff OEM1 torqueplate to mount the axle securely

rohloff/deore, schuivende padden
Can you spot the differences? This one is slightly bigger



rohloff rando

Rohloff, shifter on a pedastal, Nitto rack, bar and seatpost, Son hubdynamo and 57mm brakes

sliding dropout

Special mounting for the rear carrier

rohloff steun

Rohloff shifter on a pedstal with room for a computer


singlespeed

Singlespeed for grand tours: sneaky gearhanger, braze-ons for racks fore and aft and three bottlecages. Frame doesn't look very big on it's own., but it is designed for a full 2.0m person

is het een singlespeed, is het een derailleurfiets?

fully loaded



kaal frame

Fillet brazed 'sunday bike' with  Pacenti forkcrown

stuurpen

With a matching ''bilaminate' stem with the same theme


bilam fork
Handmade bilaminate forkcrown


touring frame with Edelux and steelflex
Edelux, Steelflex and M(-gineering)

1 x 14v driveline
28 speed Rohloff. With a front changer and 3t difference you can halve the gearjumps

raised pedal
thicker platformpedal


EHBE
koper
For the  EHBE handbuilt show  I had the randonneur demo (first on the page) copper plated. Now I have to polish it, instead of cleaning it with emerycloth. The bartape started out white, and was painted in a matching colour

Maybe not a very practical finish, but it sure got noted. The other bike on show was usually ignored.

After the show there were loads of dirty fingermarks here!

The works



Showtime.
Sometimes you have to do something outrageous, and this is outrageous according to M-gineering!
gelugd 1

It is an M-gineering, but a funny one: Polished stainless lugs (won't do to many of those) instead of fillet brazed, and a three colour paintjob with decals buried under loads of clear



gelugd 2

If you know where to look there is still some filletbrazing, but the bilaminate makes it hard to see

gelugd 3

Again the bracketshell with S&S couplers, a 'fiftyseven' transfer and  'handgemaakt in Kiel Windeweer'

gelugd 4

chainstay bridge with cutout for the mudguard

gelugd 5
Bilaminate stem with hinged clamp: you can remove the bar without unwrapping the leather Toshi bartape


gelugd 6

Stainless M-gineering M headbadge on a background of  House of Kolor candy. The lugs started out as Sachs, but the shorelines are modified, as they started out far to exuberant for my liking. I strived for subdued elegance. And I think it worked, because side by side everbody jumped on the copperplated bike  (above) first ;)

gelugd 7

Brakebridge for the 57mm brake, just visible the 30mm Grand bois Cypres tyres


gelugd 8

The lot
Build is 10 sp Ultegra, with a super nice Octalink Suntour crankset, my last Ti Flite saddle, Nitto bars, Ti King cages and Tektro brakes. The 28R/ 24Fhubs I wanted are still in the post, this is a wednesday night wheelbuild with lots of spare holes in the flanges ;)!
