My first rat rod bike

[MartinRO]

Hi all! I am George Martin. I have 21 yo. I am from Romania. This is my first bike project. I will put alot of picturesc taken during the project. If you have question write here!
So here I just start the project with a draw.

I try some 3D.

After I buy the pipes and cuted

I had problems bending the pipes because I cant find a bending machine.

And after the bending I bought parts.

I weld the frame I try to put the piece together.

Here it is the fork.

And the project come together.

And this is what I build yesterday.

Nice build! I like your style, don't keep it "to" clean and you got yourself a true rat!
Keep up the good work!

10X very much! It will be no paint and stuff. Just small detail to give it a nice touch! I will go for the next 5 days to sea side. So it is a litle vacantion for the project. Keep close my frends! Hugs!

Can you show photos of how it will steer? It looks to me that you will swing the bars inside of the humpback.....WAY COOL!!!
Welcome to RRB by the way!!! You definitely have skillz!

Thank you! I will put photos after I finish my vacantion. Yes! The bars swing inside of the humpback. It give to me kind of good control. It is my first scratch project. I will try to give the best of me!

I like it but I'm biased because the render looks almost exactly like my firebike fluid I'm ordering... only difference is yours has round tubing and firebikes are square.

So ready to get my frame here and start on it all....

I used this frame for inspiration. I needed the radius of the arcs as you see in the sketch. Good observation!

Hello again! I dont want to speak about the chain right now. It will be solved!

Hi guys! So sorry because I was late with a reply on my topic. I was busy with my friend preparing the car for some drag racing. We are happy because we beat some BMW with our romaninal nostalgic car. I will put a video. On my bike, the mechanical stuff is ok now. I moved on with the detalis. I still dont know. 50% of me want to be painted 50% not. Please tell me an opinion.

And the video with my frends car here (from the last year):

the bike looks great, I say do not paint it.

I will not paint it beacause first it is a lot of work and second I think it looks good.
And in the news, I found an old romanian number plate. I paint it and I put it on the back of the bike.
