20 divided by 26

Great looking bike. I hear ya about being tall. I'm over 6ft as well but converted a 26" big w special to 20". Where in Australia are you from ?

I'm in Sydney! We need some vintage and ratrod bike following down here.Too much of the licra brigade. I have been working on the Big W special today,should be ready to ride very soon!

Adrenaline is pumping.Painted the 27inch rims,fitted some tyres I had and made a springer type fork from the mountain bike parts.This is the fastest build ever.Will post pics of the $78 special today hopefully :wink:

Slapped together the springer fork using some alloy tubing for the rods,a rear suspension spring off the mountain bike and an old light bracket.Then painted it all satin black and a good bake with the heat gun.

Just enough clearance for the 27inch wheel with no mods :wink:
