I'm using this frame, forks and back tire.
This was the bike I planned on building for the ORBO,
but there are too many pinholes & rust in the seat and chain stays for off road.
She's going to be a stretched boardtracker.

Looking forward to seeing how you stretch that frame.

Well the stays are toasted so they gotta go...
Probably going to use the rear clip from another bike, and run the seat post parallel with the existing tube, put a good 4 or 5 inches between them. Maybe a plate at the dropouts for a few more inches, like I did on Little Neutrino...
I've got a few ideas in my head, a radical tank plan and a rack of sorts...
It's time for the Guitarl to shine thru a build.

I'm not cutting that old frame just yet...
but I think you'll get the idea...

I'm thinkin' of fabbing some vertical plates to weld in between the BB's,
with something similar at the top. Looks like I'll probably need to raise the front half a bit.
I want to keep the seat tubes parallel and have the top tube flow into the seat stays,
3 pc. crank is going into the front BB, seat post into the rear tube.
Looks like I can get the seat stays and the straight down tube about parallel too!

I've got to create a pattern for my tank.
I've got some electronics to do to get it up and running.
I've never seen one done like my plans yet.
You all are going to freak out when you see this one...

Bring it on Carl! We wanna see it!

Luke.
It's not a boardtracker, it's a Landspeeder!
May the 4th be strong in this one!
Happy Star Wars Day!

Boba Fett. ;)
