Yeah, I think I like them up too. They look perky that way, like a pup with his ears up!

Funny....but true!
I like the analogy, pup with his ears up. [emoji2]

How did you bend those bars? Did you use a torch? Looks very cool.
Filled them full of sand, masked off the ends to keep them that way. Then used the vise, a 2" pipe and a 1" pipe, heated about a 4" wide patch (rose bud with oxy/acetylene), and used the 1", to bend the bars around the 2". Slow cool, so less brittle.
Lookin like some color sand and repainting is needed.. dang it.... floabw
Seat tube was catchingnrust down the tube and only going in a couple inches... ground on ut a bit and forgot to put the wet paper towell on the paint before I started...

I like Corinthian leather, but don't need my paint to be textured like it.

Always cover your work.
Really, just fit all parts before paint... I jumped the gun on the seat tube.

Color sanded smooth and painted up, smooth again.
Cool lightning bolt post and great paint recovery!
I got lucky the paint didnt bubble. It was close..
