I Nominate (posthumously??) The Architect's bike.



I dunno if he's ever been nominated and I know that his bike isn't exactly "whole" at this point, but it was once and I don't think I'm exaggerating when I say that a LOT of peeps on this forum (including myself) drew inspiration from this build.

I don't think that his bike's styling is to everyone's taste, but its unique enough and creative enough and DAMN is it clean! This bike was built with real dedication and a meticulous attention to detail.

I got out of the Nominate and Seconding game about a year ago.  I caught a lot of flak so the loop hole around my own personal rule is to suggest one for nomination and let it run from there.  Besides, nominations have been kind of low the last few months so I figured I would help out.

Is there a build thread, or did I miss it?

Not sure if The Architects bike is finished.  I posted to one of his threads asking him.  He wrecked it a while back and I do not know how far along he is with the repair.

Here's The Architect's build thread:

http://forums.sohc4.net/index.php?topic=63166.0

I looked at the rules and it didn't specify anything about disqualification due to "wreckage". Build thread was posted, build was completed and he's still a member and the bike is still in his possesion.

Hate to think what would happen if someone hosed their ride during voting and one only to be booted after  a win 'cause it's in pieces! LOL

Correct me if I'm wrong? Even as a wreck..its still a complete bike.
