Love the direction of this build.
Great minds think alike! My 5 speed shifter is going in about the same location on my FlexLiner 7.
Yeah , but yours looks like it fits there , mine is gonna take some work . That was the only place on 3 frames I could use it :?

Unofficial replacement frame :?: ( TBJ will be happy :p ) Pending the widening of the rear stays to fit the 5 speed S/A

brilliant shifter location! I have one of those that just doesn't fit right on any of my dual top tube bikes.
 
Re: EvansRod ????? (frame change coming)

That looks a lot like the shifter I had on my Sears Screamer 2 as a kid. The bars had a decent gap between them.
 
Re: EvansRod ????? (frame change coming)

Top Pick for Best Fork. Love it!
 
Re: EvansRod ????? (frame change coming)

Dogdart just has the right touch when it comes to ratrod bikes. This is going to be fun to watch.
 
Re: EvansRod ????? (frame change coming)

Thanx everyone for the support :D Pending some sort of unforeseen disaster with my intended frame massage :wink: this is the direction I'm going . This will be more of a Hot Rod , with lot's of " shiny " . And with all the awesome forks in the RRBBO , It's high praise that so many like my little Home-brew
 
Re: EvansRod ????? (frame change coming)

Good looking stuff going on here.I'll be checking regularly to watch it come together.
 
Re: EvansRod ????? (frame change coming)

  • Started my frame work . I needed to separate the twin tubes from the seat post , so the shifter would fit better , and to help with the widening of the rear stays .

  • I used the old " all thread spreader " to get the wide hub in there

  • All seamed well , since I forgot to bring the nuts to bolt the wheel on :? Then , when I did . I found I have some alignment issues

  • Oh well , off to the frame machine .
