This will be my entry into the fat bike build off.

I got it broken down to it's elements and the paint is flying.

Here's a sneak peek. One crank arm refused to come off so I just taped and bagged it.

Well the paint was dry enough to handle mostly everything so I decided to assemble it. It looks so much better than the green and red wheels. Now just waiting on a few goodies and I'll do some more clean up work. Also got a cool frame mounted air pump at walmart today that mounts under the water bottle mount. I'll get pics tomorrow.

Well I got the grips installed, decals on, frame pump mounted, and new pedals on. Tomorrow I will install the new rack I got along with some more decals. Then I wait for my last piece to come in.

Got the wheel decals in the other day and I have to say they look great.

Also don't know if I showed this before but this is the tail light and license plate mount I made from a piece of angle aluminum. Super solid and lightweight. Had to grind it away to clear the brake and to be at the right angle but I am happy with it. Was originally going to put the light above the taillight but it wouldn't clear the brake so I flipped it around and it still looks good. Might paint the plate later to match the bike better.
