My first bike ever was a single speed Barracude in purple. I might have been 7 or 8 so '67 - '68? I remember it was cool...

All good brothers, just an observation. It usually makes no difference how long a build off is I'm tweaking things till the last minute anyway. As of right now, I don't even know what I want to build...

Orange You Glad It Ain't Purple....

Yeah I'm in the Central time zone and it's only 11:45 pm August 31st You guys ALL jumped the gun.

I was thinking of rebuilding my daughters "college" bike, but honestly, she couldn't care less, so... I'm going to have to dig thru the boneyard and see if I can pull off a "Flip and Snip" NO promises as I have to swap motors in my trucks, and that's a new endeavor for me. I did pickup a black...

I'm just wondering if a guy could flip a "mens" bike, snip the downtube and create a step thru...

I believe these are all step thru in their final forms as well...

I'm thinkin' this would have to be considered a step thru...

I did score an 1890's tandem with a step thru front half and rear steering. It has issues but if I can find a bit of skiptooth chain I think I can get it rolling...

I love open frame seats... I recently painted one with black flexseal. It came out good, like a thin rubber coating. I also dig the stance of this bike. Phase 1 is on point.

Nice. Me too. Although I do like me some grunge. Saw Local H Saturday nite at a festival...

Yeah I skipped right over that pedal powered part... I think that discourages those scraper builds, which is fine by me. I can't see having a bike you can't ride. So the INGO bike and any style of Kick bikes are out of this build off. Maybe at some point in another build off we could have a...

I went over and over sidecar geometry awhile back. Sidecar tire probably needs a bit of toe in, it pulling the chain stay out was likely the result of toe out. Maybe a piece of angle iron welded into the chain stay would strengthen that section where the hole was drilled...

40's Rollfast was the starting point. Found buried in a field was the story told to me. The chain and seat stays were pretty rough so I cut them off and replaced them with a new rear triangle from.a modern Huffy MTB. That was years ago creating Rockin' Rollfast. The deep Monark fenders lent...

It's well known that eventually I did slam that sequence of notes into the grid. At least that's how it reads in the government reports and in the late night news and at some point there will be textbooks trying to explain it. But you know as well as I do that others tried to duplicate it...
