Forkless

[ratina]

Again...truly amazing work!

The picture of the bike against the grass is my favorite, it pops out so much being all white.

It does look trippy in the riding picture having no fork like that, I love it!!

I bet you could cause a few wrecks with that, I must say that is the most original bike that I have seen in a long time.....very beautiful 8) 8)

GIVE ME THAT BIKE! Great design and craftsmanship. You get an A+. You mentioned that you had previously built a bike that had a similar front end, I thought so. Isn't it on BikeRod and Custom? Show it to us here, please.

Formally studied sculpture, no.
I took a couple of sculpture classes in high school, but none other than that. But I do consider myself a sculptor since 1991, I do automotive scuplture that I call "Classic Car Part Art" , and have been pubished in national automobile publications and sold to famous automobile personalities.

I love France Gall song ;-)

 

[Hwianshirt]

I logged in to write something but after seeing the video... i'm speechless. I'm actually a lil lightheaded from watching the video. This is how I felt when i saw my first 'real' bike. Seeing this makes me want to build one and I can't weld (yet). I want one. :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock:

I love France Gall song ;-)
