the HappyRock Bomber(aka western flyer)

[ponytailmike]

Good morning all,
Just got home from work looking at the competition…
Almost wish I hadn’t finished my Murray Super Deluxe…
But we’ll just have to see what I can do next…
The Super Deluxe will be hard for me to beat in the near future.
It turned out way to sweet.

My frame for the RRB Build Off 2 will be an old western flyer from the 30’s.
Got it from a member of the Spokesmen Bicycle Club
here in the Kansas City Area.
I mentioned I wanted an old western flyer hear badge.
He brought me this frame. (I am now still looking for a head badge)
I added the wheels and handle bars...
Here’s some pictures of my one hour build....

Starting Monday 9*17*07 I will start taking it apart…
I’ll post pictures as I go…
Come back soon…

Mike
