Yes…Yes…YES!!

Did a little ride video before meeting up with @kingfish254 today. and a few pics from today in Forsyth Park cruising around and on River Street

maybe…..😏…..😁

I wish everyone could see this bike in person, it’s pretty impressive. You would think that because it’s almost 1.25 as big everywhere as a ‘normal’ bike, it would be a lumbering, difficult to ride or move around. But, it’s surprisingly nimble. Super comfy, cool ride. 👊🏼

You look different without the beard! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

There is so much to like about this bike! I too used stainless hardware on my bike, I like the ‘warm’ tone is brings (and the rust resistance in my climate is a plus). Can’t wait to see the Finished bike!

This is definitely a funky fresh mash up between a muscle bike with some BMX influence. It’s almost the opposite of the transition that muscle bikes went through with the ‘MX’ years as they were phased out by BMX. Hope that made sense. What it breaks down to is, I dig it!

It definitely has that hitman / body guard / “brute in a 3 piece suit” flavor to it. Here’s the Finished thread https://ratrodbikes.com/forum/threads/lowco-liner.116439/#post-1226665

Oh, that has some stank on it! 👊🏼

I present the ‘Lowco Liner’. I built this one for slow Sunday cruises around downtown Savannah or near my local marina. The frame is a 1959 AMF Roadmaster, with a totally rebuilt 1940s era CWC Shockmaster fork and a 1950’s CWC tank and chainguard, with custom graphics. To ‘modernize’ it a bit, I...

I would consider putting a coat of BLO over everything, once the paint properly cures. But the deadline may prevent that at this point

Thick Bricks for the win!

Got it made at Lettering.com I went with upgraded marine vinyl it was around $15-16. It’s the second set I’ve had done by them.

Last piece of the puzzle complete See you in the ‘Finished’ section!

This….bike….is……perfect 👊🏼

Since I currently lay my bike in the back of my 1995 Volvo wagon, I decided to add some ‘tank protection’ so the truss rods don’t do too much damage during transport. Went to the hardware store and picked up some 3/8” ID, 1/2” OD clear plastic tubing. Also decided to paint the area between the...

It will be interesting to see how the paint performs once the tire is inflated and bike/rider weight is put on it.

“who would think a spoon, a fence post topper, and a VW emblem would fit together like this?!” I can think of a couple of folks….you know who you are…. 🤣🤣🤣 🙋🏻‍♂️

Looking great! I envy the dedicated shop space (working on resolving that myself). I say, if you want/like/have time to make the guards, go for it! I must say though, that shifter gate idea is cool, if you see it in the future on one of my builds, take it as a compliment 😉 Build on!

Nice work all around dude! The tire aging looks great to me The headlight ‘upholstery’ But I REALLY like the use of a spoon for the bracket, that is a bit of ‘rat rodding genius’ right there! Looking forward to to the final product. Build on!
