This monark frame is the only part of this build I’m decided on. That’s why it’s named undecided. I originally had a plan then I parted out some bikes and came up with some parts that would take it a different direction. I’ll likely mock it up both ways and decide!

Friend just gave me another pile of junk bikes. More options for cutting up!

getting closer and still unsure if i want shiny strandie or if i finally go fenders and all. everytime i go to the basement and look i change my mind

I’m going to use atleast one of these fenders between c1 & c2 or quit storing them 😂

Man this top build is almost enough to get me to part out the woman’s Higgins I bought. The way it uses those skirts is awesome.

Early look at my class 2 build. It’s in this pile somewhere 😂

I’m torn between trying to finally build something with fenders or just throwing all these fenders in the next scrap load 😂

Cleaned the tools up and organized things today. Class 1 for sure, class 2 a possibility

I built a monark for my first build off, this rusty thing is my current plan. Strandie style most likely because I love my bmx bars

One of my favorite build offs every year. Finally painting something nice also gave me my best finish ever. Wild!

In anticipation of cutting up more bikes for c2 this year, I put the springer and bars on last years c2 and rode it around today 😂

It’s now hanging out along the wall with the rest of them except my flightliner that I ride most 😂.

Is it summer build off time yet 😂 it’s hard to not build things

Went and bought some cheap forks today. Couple of cheap back wheels Picked up the half of tank Came home and my son had went and picked these 2 up for me. My wife’s grandparents bikes. He passed away and she wanted them gone. The ladies bike was 1 owner. Not time for sentimental attachment...

I think I’ll either keep the bike together or sell it whole. Turns out for a woman’s bike it strangely has value.

I’ve been holding onto a crusty monark frame for the summer build. Needed a fork and today at Easter my father in law told me his neighbor gave him a bike to sell in exchange for cleaning the shed. It’s missing half the tank and a woman’s bike but I may feel bad parting this one out. This hub...

I normally don’t paint anything because I’m not very good at it 😂 but my only fork that fit was bright orange and that wouldn’t work well. Running into the same problem with my planned summer build. Buying frames with junk forks is catching up to me

Still sad they tore out the last dirt we had to ride here. Might have to change tires and cruise it on the street. It rides fantastic and I really like the paint

https://ratrodbikes.com/threads/crusty.119345/ Back surgery hampered the snow riding but got out a bit today with the brace on for a few final photos. The local singletrack that I built this to cruise on is currently being destroyed to make a paved bike path extension. Because of the back brace...

Had to move it so we could get some old furniture out of the basement, really need to get it out and get photos. I love how the paint turned out!
