Trying to do better than 3 outta 3 muscle bike, I'm making a "4 outta 3" bike, this girl bike doesn't exactly make the step through requirements, but Krayzee Duck meet wheel, seat, and bar criterias

I'm getting a head start, she's already been talking to me about where she wants to go
 
I’ll be a spectator this go round. Taking a building break to use my free time to catch up on household projects, workshop cleanup & organiztion, and perhaps tooling upgrades.

Liking the new format of the buildoffs. Keeps something interesting going on all year. 👍🏼

ORBO next 😉
 
It's doubtful for me. I have another client bike to restore next and it doesn't fit the criteria for this build-off.

I do have a muscle bike that is just a clean and repair project that I'd like to slip in. I also have an X-53 step over that is in need of a clean and service that might possibly be simple enough to enter. The jury is still out at this point though.
 
I'm in, (STBO) with an all-pinky pink huffy step thru about 20 yrs old.
This one makes me want to break out my Cranbrook. But I need my step thru build to be quick-ish and the Cranbrook plans are too extensive. My MBBO entry is going to take some time and I have a lot of other irons in the fire at the moment. This will be a fun build!

Remember when somebody suggested an all Cranbrook buildoff? Might have merit 😁
 
I put the wife's Spaceliner (Good & Plenty) build on pause to try a run at this. She and I have been working out how we are going to get crochet skulls to hold shape as a tank and possibly lights, front and rear. Of course, I have been staring at a three speed hub and the a front hub replacement (remember the cracked OG in the photo way back?) which would be the biggest challenge here.

I suppose I should count the spokes in the hub and the OG rim as well as figure out a spoke length calculator without further delay!

I can not find the original purchase pictures (2017) but I'll keep looking.
