    I'll try to grab one tonight. Still nowhere near mounting the frame on the trike though. It's hard to do a build on a bike that's your daily rider.

    Yeah, it actually looks pretty cool in bright red. Now to try to make a box for the back and try to figure out a wiring diagram for the speaker system. Baby steps.

    Finally got some work done. Need to fill some imperfections with some fiberglass epoxy but laid down a base paint coat anyway to see how I liked the color.

    How strong is JB Weld?

    Can't really weld since the body mods are mix of fiberglass, filler and aluminum.

    Gichigami Growler Grabber - Finished!!! Pic on page 8

    Do you have a rat tail file? I used one last year to clean out the head set in my BO bike to get more clearance for a new fork tube.

    How strong is JB Weld?

    So you're saying its pretty strong.

    How strong is JB Weld?

    For my RRBO bike I need to mount a post to attach my jockey shifter to but all of my tubes have been modified, so there's no way to use a band clamp or something similar. I was thinking of JB Welding it but wasn't sure about the durability of it since I've never worked with it. Strong enough...

    Let the SCOOTER builders unite...

    There's a guy in Virgina Beach that has a killer scooter that has road bike wheels.

    Forgot to mention Back Bay Brewing, ......'s, and Zeke's (authentic Hawaiian poke bowls) on Norfolk Ave (9th St) at Cypress.

    Yeah, it's heavy as he!!. A lot of times they use fiberglass for them but this is all metal and bondo. A little sanding and it should be ready for paint. The nice thing is that I can cannibalize from last years build for it. Hopefully I get some cooperative weather this weekend.

    I live at the oceanfront too. Shoot me a PM. Ive got beater bikes you can borrow. I think JD said you were in the Hampton Inn, I'm over on 15th so I'm pretty close. You actually have one of the best boardwalk places right next to you in Calypso and the Hampton Inn has a pretty decent Taphouse...

    Frame to be used. Generic Murray. I think its the same base frame I used for my klunker build last year. Little fire engine red and silver metal flake and it should look okay.

    2 more project ballooners

    Dude, why don't you call me when you find these and there are ones you don't want? Granted, Donna would probably punch me in the throat if I brought home more bikes, but hey, it's cheaper than being a car collector.

    JC Higgins " Regal Deluxe" Color Flow tank bike

    There was one of these on CL last week, did you list it?

    So after basically doing nothing but buying some parts for the part of my bike that is not a bike I think I am switching frames to my 26" lowrider frame. I became concerned about the longevity of the bottom bracket on the Stelber and had the other frame just sitting around waiting to be used...

    BONINE BEATS.

    Love the baseline in that. Makes me think of Firehose's Brave Captain.
