Been busy around here for the last two weeks.. Bad NEWS!… I wanted this frame to work so badly I might have had my rose colored classes on when looking it over. Turns out the welds are junk. When I ground the paint off there was a ton of bondo hiding the truth. I did think about just bondoing...

Found this frame at a local swap meet.. someone customized an old Schwinn Suburban. I just love the look of it. Thanks!! I hear you!! I think I got it all to work. I do have a couple ideas if they want to rotate.

This week is going to be 50/60 degrees got to get the frame ready for paint

Thank you!! Can’t wait to show the finished bar set up. Lots more to come!

Small update Got the handlebar mounting all figured out. UPS delivered the paint yesterday. The fuzzy math got to my head trying to lace weird count rims to 36 hole hubs. So I ordered some new rims should be here soon. Just need some warm weather to paint.. let’s hope. Lots of photos and updates...

Always a pleasure to watch a master. Bike is looking fantastic! Keep up the great work.

Thanks Totally appreciate it!! Thank you! Not sure I saw it coming either but so glad I gave it a try.

Okay I’ve been looking at this bike sitting in my bike work space. Trying to figure out if I like the springer parts on the fork. The answer is yes but I how do use the holes for the original support bolt? What about handlebar mounts? Found two matching stems in my parts bin Cut to fit…...

Busy couple weeks here. Time to get back on this. Spokes came in yesterday. Time to lace up some wheels.

BUMP!! Just some randomness

Thanks for taking a look! Yeah those Grifter tires are so cool. I do love how it fits on the deep V. You got it it’s a Shimano hub some weird 1980’s stuff. Yep Lime Drop will be a crazy green for a crazy frame. I’m out of town for a couple days can’t wait to get back working on this. Time is...

Thanks!! Having lots of fun with this build. 👍🏼

It’s going to be super weird ergonomics… I’m going to be in a weird upright position. 🤣

One more photo from this morning… With the breath mint box I got the seat and sissy bar to sit just how I want it to all sit on the final build

Tons of fun here trying to get it all to fit. Thanks!

]Sissy-Bar arrived yesterday.. I like my banana seat to be mounted at the very front. Going to drill Out this mount and move it all they way forward. Time to head to work.. I’ll get the mount re-mounted tomorrow. Looks like it seat and sissy bar will work.

Last nights ride

Playing with springer parts…. 🤔🤔🧐🧐

Yeah there’s lots of info on the Google on how to do it. I’ve next laced a 36h hub to a 48 we will see how it goes 🤞🏼
