I did give in and start rushing the rust. Realized I have a lot of things left to work on so couldn’t rust it forever! My buddy did point out I probably should have did a full mock up before rust because now adding an extra fab work will need cleaned with a grinder. Hopefully get to do some...

Plenty of space for this, although taking this picture showed me it was crooked so I had to fix that. Grips match the seat! Not sure what the bars are off of but I love how wide they are.put about 3 miles on it for a shakedown. The sissy bar either needs swapped, padded or bent. Unsure of what I...

Took it for a ride today, it rides fine but the 26x2 front and rear isn’t doing it for me. My Columbia build off bike I regret selling was 26x2.125 front and rear but the seat was slammed and it looked less muscle bike like.these bars are really wide, kind of neat. The seat came off a huffy rail...

My kids make fun of me watering my bike, this side isn’t rusting very quick. But the side that was in the mud was rusting pretty quickly

The extras was something that wasn’t planned but it looked boring otherwise. Debated sheet metal filling the section between the 2 rear triangles but decided the bracing worked

This 18 is the smallest I have, may try moving up to a 20 though. I usually juggle fronts but currently don’t seem to have anything 36-39t. Haven’t been buying bikes to part out like I used to

This is a 26x2 and seems to clear ok, not as cool as the 26x2.125.multi speed? The only 24 inch wheelset I have handy. This bike really hasn’t spoke to me 😂I feel like I’ve done this style brake before. The scrap pile doesn’t have a long enough cable though. Some of that fresh grade 8 hardware...

As bad as I want this 26x2.1 in the back I either need a 39t sprocket, a half link or down to a 1.75 😕

As another person who loves twin tube frames like the flightliner and space liner. I didn’t know this one existed!

Today was clean and refresh day for wheels these aluminum 26x1.50s are my current favorites for this build. My least favorite style of bearings! Not sure what I pulled these wheels off but the rear bearings were dry and rusty. In worse shape then 80s huffy wheels took a little extra time...

One night in the weeds during a thunderstorm just isn’t enough 😂 I need to forget this thing exists for like a month. So onto boring stuff Simple clean and repack of the bearings, may even keep these old dry rotted whitewalls on it for a bit. This thing won’t be a high speed bike. For being off...

I still love that style springer!

i really want to do another multi speed build, this is awesome

Plan was to rebuild some wheels for my class one build this evening. But instead I broke out my harbor freight special and a flappy disc! full bare metal isn’t happening without a sandblaster. I should have planned ahead! My favorite extra joint on this build. Rear triangle section of some...

Sometimes having a wagon is handy, did the front today. Little chop chop Scrap frame rail for a gusset The new seat post location, and I’m horrible at progress photos. This is how it looks mocked up to check for pedal height! Going to spend a bunch of hours trying to strip it to bare metal...

Got sidetracked by the class 2 and forgot about this. Had to hand file but it now clears a modern 10mm axle in the fork and a 2.125 clears, barely wont Be using my quick release wheelset but it had an inflated 2.125 on it and I was curious

Might have got a little carried away adding things.Jeep parts won’t be in until tomorrow so we wasted 3ish hours today. Kevin thought it was too plain just extending it so I went home and got another frame, another rear triangle and some Huffy sprocketsthis is back at home. Going back tomorrow...

Spacelinerflightliner. While close, the frames are not the same.

my highest voted bike ever for a build off was using my spare parts pile and a piece of sheet metal, you can do some cool stuff with that parts pile!

Interesting to know what my back up plan frame looks like with a tank!
