Im down. I accidently clicked no yesterday while the page was still loading, so instead of clicking yes like I wanted to it moved slightly and I clicked no.
I say 20" or less, prefferably 16", I think that would be cool.

I have been trying to find a 12" or 16" bike to make a "mini burrito" out of but haven't had the best of luck as there frames have gotten goofy in the last couple of years for that size bike making it difficult to build one.
 
since I have lots of kiddy bikes and parts I think I'de be in for a 20" and smaller build off....? no rules ? thats opens up the door to some
cool mods.....eerr ...bikes that may fall out of rat status and into chop status.

I wasn't gonna do it but my mind got to spinning on the ride home from work. Dang , I am in.

Maybe have a class for 20" bikes and one for under 20". There are lots of cool 20" inch frames but few 12 and 16 " frames.

hmmm... no cutting/welding for me... but I DO have this old Apollo frame begging for me to do something weird to it...

sweet looks like i gotta go get that welder. hey if it breaks it is a small bike so i wont fall as far :shock:
 
For those of you without welders, you can always stretch a frame by sleeving it (big sleeve) and then bolting it back together. Just use good bolts! I made my first chopper like that and never had a problem and I weighed 315 at the time! Good luck to all of you and looking forward to seeing some wild Rats!
 
As far as timing goes...what would be best for you yankees? :lol:

Want to make sure you're not having to paint and shovel snow at the same time. :shock:
 
Hey Rat Rod,
I went into work 2 hours early this past Saturday and again on Sunday and built me a 20 incher, an under 4 1/2 hour and no money spent Rat Bike Burrito.
Did I jump the gun too early or could I enter her in the fun?
Thanks, Kenny :D
