Technically, my first job was as a golf caddie. It lasted a partial Summer at a resort in my home town. I had never played golf, and didn't know anyone who did. I was just draggin' a bag 🤣 Didn't go the whole Summer, because my dad got sick of getting up at 4am to get me there by 4:30 every...

Nice! I'm using one as well, but extending it a bit. Good to know they are compatible with much larger wheels.

Yeah, it does look odd alone. Originally they had truss rods that followed, yet balanced, the lines. Similar to what you are doing here.

Been sitting on one of these for years (among other things)... just waiting for the moment 🤣🤣🤣

Here are a couple seat options as well.

Trying to see if it'll make a comeback on this build...

A while back, I made this 'devil tail' fender from a beater I had. Originally it was a concept I was going to run on 'Luci', during an early iteration.

🙌

I am leaning that way, myself. Ideally, I'd like to bend the fork legs a touch more for a better flow-line (visually) from the cantilever into the fork.

Roger Doger! 🤣 That would be wild! I will be cutting them down, but maybe for an Optimus Prime build?

Trying to decide on wheel size/position. I have a 20" and a 26" spitfire tire, but I'm not married to running both. I'd like to run at least one, however. Thoughts?

Ok! Minor wrestling match, to wedge the shim open long enough to get the post started, but we're good! I'll obviously need to trim it down, but problem solved!

I know it is shimming a seat post, thus 'seat post shim' but the shim itself is as big in diameter as the largest frame tubing I've ever come across. Maybe it was for a motorcycle?

So we adapt... I have, what was sold as, a 'bicycle seatpost shim'. It was not. But it is a shim, nonetheless, and it's been lying around for a couple years. Hopefully, it should do the trick. Looks like just the right amount of tolerance... And this seatpost should fit into the shim...

In order to mount the top plate of the triple tree, I have to have all 3 pipes slide into the corresponding fittings. But since I am altering the steer-tube assembly. The inverted steer-tube ends up being the same diameter as the fitting itself.
