I'm going stir crazy waiting for the build off to begin. The weather was quite agreeable today, so I took a spin on Gerty to a few of my favorite spots.

At the website Robsson.de They have a huge selection and always seem to be in stock

Woo! Just ordered some fat tire rims. I can't get over the fact that ordering rims from Germany and having them shipped to the US is faster, cheaper and more reliably in stock than anything I can find here in the US

So much cool cyberpunk stuff out there, but nothing remotely like what I have in my head. I'll give y'all a hint, there's a good reason I picked a bike with a tank

Ratina sauce🤤🤤

I'm thinking about a cyberpunk style build

They're nice. Make sure to keep it oiled in a few places like the height screw and where the crank shaft passed through it or it'll get worn out super quickly. swagoffroad.com has a ton of aftermarket pieces for them that make life way easier and more accurate

Welcome to the forum. Are you going to participate in this year's Rat Rod Bikes build off?

I'm down to see if we can't make a deal.

That's what I use on the rear of last year's class two build. They make lacing a pain because they're drilled for a 140 spoke pattern instead of the standard 144

Me likey🤤

This may be a bad time and place to ask this, but I'm having a very difficult time finding wide rims. Does anyone know of a good place to order 3-5 inch (80-125mm) wide fat bike rims here in the US? Just the rims, not the complete wheel set. The only place I can find then reliably is from a...

I plan on building up the Evans Colson Olympic I picked up a few years ago. It hasn't moved since it came into my yard and it's now sufficiently crusty and seized up for the challenge. Just some new wheels, a little grease, nothing too fancy😜 I've also got some plans for an out of the world...

I guess that with the LEDs it kinda counts towards the lasers side of the threads name🤔

I gussied up the bike tonight for a group night ride with a bunch of friends. Had a great time and got to see downtown Kalamazoo after dark. We had bikes from three different decades in the group!

I made the holes in the gusset with a Christmas tree bit from harbor freight. Just took a bit of maths to get them to flow that way

I'll definitely update the thread if the paint shows up. It's going to be painted House of Kolor Root beer kandy

Thanks! If the paint ever arrives, I still want to paint it. It won't last long in raw steel with this Michigan weather. I can't put it in my garage/shop because it's too long to store hung up on the wall. I've only got 10 ft ceilings and the bike is 11 ft long

The final photo of this bike, before I broke it down for paint. I still want to fully paint it, but it's a matter of IF the paint ever shows up. Can't even get a refund because it's still "in transit, close to being delivered"
