    1951 Schwinn Panther frame on the way. What fork?

    My guess is that it will work if the steer tube isn’t too short.

    Love watching the historical build. Gotta comment on the too hot to work in 77degrees. It’s pretty warm here at 103 today. It’s 8pm right now and we just down to 97. Before you yell at me just know, I couldn’t take the kinda cold you talk about either. I guess humans climatize pretty well.

    Double clamp stem

    Man, I’m no bike snob but this bike has got a lot of the good stuff. Schwinn straight fork, uraya rims, rear Morrow, front Schwinn high flange, stainless spokes, gold nipples, Brooks seat, se bars, finish line grips, chopsaw chainring. And now handmade double clamp stem. I’m grinning like an ......

    Yelp you fit in just fine here. Although this site welcomes a broad spectrum. There are several more specific forums here that cater to the BMX feel and I’ll let you discover those. Cruiser, klunker, 24”, 26” BMX, strandie are all terms that fit. Enjoy.

    Awesome build with tons of rat rod bikes history. Few of us are still around from those days. I don’t know if you’re still on the fence about cutting the fork tubes, but I’d vote to leave them. I mean, everybody cuts them cuz that’s what ya do. For that reason alone, I’d leave them uncut and...

    Double clamp stem

    Small progress but It took some effort to cut those clamps. I’m now ready for Thursday. Got a buddy that’s a better welder than me so I’m gonna let him work the molten magic. Also gotta drill the other plate with a bigger bit than I got.
