Haha, Kota, I'm glad I made it seem easy because man it had me frustrated. I'm not going to lie as soon as I got it figured out and everything tightened up. I immediately left the house, I had to get as far from that wheel as possible. LoL jOe: Thanks for the resources I am going to have to...

Well I got it spoked... it took me right around 5 hours but dang it I got it done!I think I mentioned this before but I have never laced up any kind of wheel ever before and it was not as easy as I hoped it would have been but it was not really that hard, just a lot of trial and error. I...

Well not too much of an update but the ol mercury climbed high enough yesterday that I felt comfortable attempting to lay down a little paint. So I went ahead and laid down the primer, green, and flat clear on the rear rim. Hopefully if I can get a little free time tomorrow I will begin the rim...

Awesome, that's a great Trike! Honestly The Gladiator trike is what first drew me to the Atomic Zombie site and then I found the Overkill Chopper. I would love to do a wild trike too but honestly I don't know where I would store it. Garage space at my house is definitely at a premium right now...

Yeah that was pretty much my biggest concern about using it too. But Like I said before I think it would be at least worth trying and if it doesn't work I'll just swap it out for a normal lever. Still for what it's worth the original Overkill chopper had no brakes at all. Oh and for anyone who...

Ok so I had an idea and I did a little researching on the subject but I didn't really find anything helpful about it so I am just going to throw this out there. I was at Northern Tool yesterday with a friend pricing out a couple of things for other projects and just looking at some other stuff...

Thanks for all of the kind words guys! Just want to give you a heads up though this is probably going to be a slow build, but I am going to make every effort to keep this thread updated when I do make progress. And Kota yeah I definitely know how nasty fumes from galvanized steel can be...

Edit: Here is my Chopper Bicycle as it sits today. And this is how it got here... So here it is the start of my crazy chopper bike project. The frame is being completely built from scratch with a lot if inspiration taken from the Atomic Zombie Overkill chopper. I am trying to go for a cross...

Thank you, yeah this is a pretty nice area. Not too far from the country, but still big enough that there is always something good going on around here. I've been here since I was in high school, my dad was in the Marine Corps and he ended up retiring here. Before that we lived all over the...

Hey guys, I stumbled onto your awesome site while researching ideas for my project bike. As soon as I started reading some of the project threads I was hooked. You guys have definitely rekindled my love for bicycles. When I was younger in Middle school and High school I spent every free moment...
