see what you mean didn't notice that on my quick look, 1- wish you were closer could maybe shrink it around for ya? 2- just a thought if you follow the fender with frame how much would you need to trim off fender could just use some black tape to see if the fender would look weird tapered? which...

I like the extension on the fender fills in the gap nice :thumbsup:

kinda figured there was 1 or more out there just haven't seen one till this one, looks small?

Yes it was! at the time I just didn't have it all figured out yet:) and still don't on the lower tail end but am close with 2 options I have in mind the little seat brace was another pet peeve it had to follow that and curve of fender

Thanks! that was one thing I wanted was it to follow the seat stay little more work on the backend then its just flip and repeat on other side.

still need to deal with the lower rear area things will be cut and shorter and ? have a few ideas and get the stem welded up and detail on it, time is short so I have had to scratch some stuff off my to do list and focus on getting the main part done and go from there and for some reason in all...

bent some 3/4 tube for rear still dealing with the mud wasps persistent things building in different areas

really liking the newer frame and old parts :thumbsup:but still makes me want to put a plate on the seat for a picnic :p

digging this with the dual drive:cool2:

Nice!! You executed this great. electric conversion is on my to do list at some point

This is looking great!! And it just gave me a idea for a different kind of build down the road, not sharing though :D I am finally starting to catch up on the builds lot of great bikes.

Thanks TRM I think I have it figured out now be kinda like original but guess like you said before will have a twist, worked on it this morning but this afternoon has been a bust my wasps are back in full force building a different nest somewhere in this mess right by where I work :mad: pest...

so am I :( blew thru 20 + foot of half inch conduit mocking different things up good thing its super cheap. I do know the x53 rack is out I did want to use but where I want the seat positioned just not going to work just sits way to far back. here is where I am at kinda for extra seat bracing...

me to time is short :eek: I see late nights in my future :D It will be all black some shiny some not hence the name :) I have been wanting to do these deep fenders with this fork for awhile and the X53 turned out to be a good match being beefier looking. On the pencil torch deal I wasn't...

I HAVE MADE FIRE (quoting Tom Hanks in Castaway) was easier for me though LOL. thought I would throw this in also on this build that I haven't seen before either on a bike threw a few clues out earlier just need to get the other side done

fenders extended both are 2 piece need to finish mounts, bars I thought this thing needed flat long pull back but after getting it outside and staring at it farther away not so sure now as once they are raised some for stem may look out of place o_O guess I need to get my stem built. I may be...

needed to extend the rear of fender about 6" so did multiple cuts and just a quick double bend with a pliers so when its welded will be even all the bars I have that I tried I have not liked so I hauled out big bertha and did a quick test bend and liking this so guess I will be building bars...

wasps are gone so back to work.. cut this and need to carve out one more.

oddjob don't see them on there website, dr. t one I had considered but were not available at the time though. I did however find a hub today single speed no coaster brake but have it coming as a back up figured could always run a front drum brake if need be as this will be just a slower...

I bought this from the UK as it included the rear hub gear. I seen there is one from the US on ebay now but doesn't include the rear gear so pretty much useless, even what I bought is not a cut/weld/bolt on deal says works with nexus hubs but....... not so much IF you don't have the nexus made...
