i guess it's in the books. thanks to all who voted. thanks to wildcat for playing along and starting the threads. it was fun for my first unofficial build off. i learned a lot about build offs and build off etiquette. i hope these mini build offs continue throughout the year and dont cause Steve any headaches.

Congrats to both bikes and builders! Them stock little folders are cool but they don't offer much in cooperation when customized. You both stepped up and brought the bikes to life!

thanks, i think there was only one way to go with these and that was over to the freak side. you are stuck with so many parts on these things. wildcat was really handicapped. he couldnt change his bars or stem.

Well, the bike is at it's new home in the Philippines, minus the big basket and with different bar ends. The chrome ones got in the way when it folded. And the leather saddle wouldn't hold up too well in the weather so it's still mine. The new owner is my wife's niece who uses it to commute back and forth to college.
