Topic: Reinventing the wheel

[Jinxracing]

Is there a prize for ugliest mounting bracket?

If there is, you're in the running...especially considering how great the rest of the bike is looking.  Those wheels look really good!

In reference to your earlier concerns about the indicator scratching your powdercoat there's another option, even though you obviously already figured out a way. You can get different tips for your indicator: wheels, balls, pads, etc. Check out catalog page 2224 at www.mcmaster.com. Enco and MSC probably have them cheaper, but for some reason their websites have been down for a few days now.

I agree dont feel too bad. I have a set of Buchanan rims and spokes and I believe the PO paid something in your range. Anyway it looks great and you know its unique!

Also thanks for posting the cost - not everyone would  Hopefully the therapy is working 

cheers

I was on Carpy's site last night. He has a project 400ss that he is making a cafe out of. I like Carpys bikes, but he acts as if it is going to be quite difficult to build it into a cool bike. I think he ought to check out your build. Very, very nice job.
