Thanks guys, I am glad you like it. Hopefully soon there will be more pics and vids to come... hang on there.

Any parts you guys don't agree with on the bike? I still want to powder the shocks black, at least the upper spring.
Let me know

Jens

that is so #$%*ing tits ... LOVE that frame mod ... don't change a thing

are you gonna go vintage or modern for the headlight

(i think vintage)

squirley · « **Reply #202 on:** September 22, 2009, 01:29:47 PM »

headlight..... vintage style.... may go to a smaller diameter though

Staggerlee · « **Reply #203 on:** September 22, 2009, 02:38:48 PM »

What'd you end up with for headlight mounts?

i love this bike. Is that your Fixie in the background?

squirley · « **Reply #206 on:** September 23, 2009, 02:14:28 PM »

For headlight ears i took some stainless half tube and made two pieces fit together to form a circle that would function as a clamp around the fork. One half piece has some holes, the other half has tabs so they fit into one another and bolt at the front side. Hope this makes sense.

Yep, that is my fixed gear in the background. Lot of fun! Sometimes it is nice to slap together something simple and nice looking to get your creative and working juices flowing again... turns out I make lots of fixies to help me feel more productive
