Hey all… I’m hoping to find everyone happy and healthy…
What a summer!!! I’ve been so busy!!!
Got a new job (that’s short for “just over broke”)….
Been working to many hours to play with my bikes…
I had really thought I would sit this one out…
But then it happened…
I went to a swap meet July 27 08…
I picked up an old skip tooth bike, a bunch of parts,
and two old frames…
I had some tires mounted on some rims…
I threw the back one in the frame…
Then went and found a fork…
And some handle bars…
And a seat…
Before I knew it I had a mock up…
But to use this frame with the freewheel
I needed brakes
Cut… Chop… Silver Solder…
I’ve got brakes…
Guess I add some braise on shifters and some cable stops
Need a derailer hanger to use the derailer I wanted
Cut… Chop… Silver Solder…
The frame is ready to be painted…
On goes the primer
And now the color
A few picts of assorted parts and accessories
Not finished yet…
We’ll keep you posted….
Time is short…
