3 speed or single speedThanks, but I just need a rear and I'm holding out for a Schwinn.
3 speed or single speed?
it could get complicated if we start sorting out what's a modNot trying to nitpick, but can you clarify the rules on minor frame mods ? if they fit the class ?
In other words - would a sexchange but stock appearing bike be ok in class 1 ?
What about cutting out and rewelding a brake bridge ( ie: swap from coaster to 3 speed Stingray ) ?

Big and littles - Fat rear.
or in Luke's case - car tire on back, bicycle on front.....
I will look around the shop this weekend I think I have at least 1 single speed i'll send you some picsSingle speed, RB2 hub, it's for a '65.

Multiple entries are still allowed.What's the rule on multiple entries ? still ok with 2 ?
We really want class 1 to be for original rebuilds/refurbs, as such I would say that all frame mods would be class 2, but, IF you can do the mods and it appears completely factory (adding a brake bridge to allow 3 speed as suggested and it appears as a factory 3 speed model) you might get away with staying in class 1.Not trying to nitpick, but can you clarify the rules on minor frame mods ? if they fit the class ?

Cool bike!![]()
Here is another bike that was gifted to me from the same person that gave me the jaguar for campground cruiser. 1970 Schwinn Krate it's pretty roached out. I am not sure if I want to dig into this one, especially so soon after this last build. It appears it has been painted black, it has a black badge and a bit of red paint in the ss#. I am not sure what the original model was. Maybe the cotton picker due to black badge?? Any ideas? I may consider selling whole or parting it out.
hey bro that seat would be cool on the frame I have it already has a tank and side plates made form plastic are you gang to be in the buildoff/ I might be willing to help you with a few parts if you need any as much as I know this is a competition but I still also consider you one of my fellow rrb brothers but anyways this is the basic frame I have minus the seat bars wheels chain guard fenders and front endWell, I know I won't be building Afterburner, I used the seat and megapost for SaltHammer
Maybe I'll find a use for this big seat since no one is buying it from my sale thread.
