Chingadera

[8ball]

I'm a new builder. Been collecting bikes since last Oct. Here's a skiptooth in progress - stock, basic.
Authentic bullhorn handlebars, wrapped layback seat, mudflap girl bling.

Are those 24" wheels? (They look real small under the fenders)

Yes, 24's. I like the look.

 

[ScurryMurray]

Cool lookin bike. The bullhorns and mudflap are great additions.

Sweet bike. I'd get some bigger tires if your keepin the 24's, thats just me though.

Thanks for the feedback, all. I don't know... the smaller wheels just made the fenders float. The stubbier cranks were switched from a Sting-Ray.

8ball,
Cool looking ride, lovin' the horns and flap. I agree with the other guys that some bigger tires are in order to fill those 'wheel wells'. Right now, the gap looks a little 'awkward'.
Some 24 x 3s, would be perfect.
There's tons of options, Electra Fatti-Os in white wall or black wall, there's a couple of flame patterned tires out there for a 'racy' look.
Nirve makes the Fat ... tire in a blackwall and whitewall too.
Choppers US has several options (I bought Kenda Krazes from them for my bike)

If you want something with a 'vintage' or 'boardtracker' tread, then Felt Thick Bricks are an option, they come in a whitewall, blackwall or cream. Their Berm Masters are cool if you like a knobby tread, like the ones you're running now.
Here's a cool and relatively inexpensive street tread, I've never seen one installed, but it looks cool.

Just found this one too, pretty cheap.

A lot of pre-WW2 motorcycles have a similar wheel/fender size ratio. 8) I'd run a chain guard. :|

Whoa...Fast Eddie...a blast from the past. :wink:

 

[8ball]

I sure appreciate the feedback.

 

[Chainsaw]

The tire fenders look great! I wouldn't change the sizes. I probably would go with a different tread pattern but that's just me. It's got an old time farm bike look to it! I like!

 

[TheFlyingDingo]

This is a great looking bike, Liking the horns

 

[Adapt]
