Thanks guys! Work this week is kind of getting in the way of my build so far! But I plan on catching up soon! Thanks for lookin!

Looking really good Pick, if you build it as well as you did the Bad Apple it is sure to be amazing!

Found a set of bars that are just weird enough that I think I like them. Don't laugh......Yet! My plan is to use them flipped using the porkchopper headset. For now I just have a picture in my head & will get it put together tomorrow

Also have a rear wire rack that I got from Diabolical_Dork @ the swap (FREE) that I may try to fab some truss rods for the front forks.

Knowing the way "pictures" come out of your head, they will be very cool and unique, looking forward to the next installment

Don't give up on me yet! Working alot, so not much progress. Borrowed a tap from LowpowerD (Thanks a million Dave!) & began adding threads to the head tube. Real pain in the ---, this triple tree is welded & doesn't come apart, so threading is a nightmare! 1/4" turn, then re-adjust, then another 1/4" turn & repeat, over & over. Don't have access to a ratcheting type handle & I'm too cheap anyway, so doing it the slow way. So far I think I have less than $60 in this build & don't plan on spending anymore. Hope to have some update pics soon.

I like this little build Pick. Anything new?

[LowpowerD]

It might be awhile before he updates. Threading his stearer tube is quite a project.

[MplsCoaster]

Your threading job sounds brutal, but when you're done, it will be so cool

Dave: Only have about 1/2 inch to go! Will get it finished this weekend.

Thanks Steve for your kind words!


Thanks guys for lookin, now to "coin a phrase", I better "GTB'!) Jake is gettin impatient with me & my lack of progress!

[Diabolical_Dork]

How's it coming along Pick? You need to borrow my Zilla Monster? He works for bike parts.

Steerer tube threading is finally finished! Over 4 hours total twisting & turning, but finally there.

Note to self: Never, Ever use a triple tree fork again that does not come apart!

Will post some pics when I really have something to show. This build is moving @ a snail's pace so far!
