I like vintage womens seats... gives ya that old style in a smaller size... what do you have laying around?

This is what I chose for my build off bike.... But... Just look at the t shirt design and try to picture whats under racers butt.... If you think it will look good on the bike... then thats what we will put on it....

I have a Brooks B66 in black. You may want something a little more vintage and a little bigger. Let me know what you think. I would be more than happy to give it up for RRB. 8)

I think that would be a perfect seat... Has a good vintage look to it... Plus it will match the all black look we are goin for...

I've got the solid chainwheel, should you still need it.

Sadly, the only set of crescent bars that I had to cut down turned out to be bent on one side.

EDIT: As it turns out, I also have a couple of 36-hole drum brake front hubs (off an old downhill-racing off-road wheelchair), HOWEVER they're probably meant for a moped. They use 1/2" axles and 11g (.120") spokes.

If you don't mind modifying the fork to fit a larger axle, and lacing up with 12g spokes, I could send a hub along.
