    I have a soft spot for these frames. This one is looking great with the fat fenders and Evans up front. Do you have a paint scheme in mind?

    Re: Old Soul... headbadge Thanks! Here's a better picture of it. I'm proud of the way it turned out. Just hope the bike itself turns out..

    Re: Old Soul... headbadge Thanks MPLS.. but the frame will end up being a light gray color, rims will stay black.. and some red accents thrown in. With work this week, I won't get much done. Come next weekend I'll get the frame AND fork blasted to bare metal for a full mock up. Then the fun...

    Re: Old Soul... headbadge Thanks guys. Jones & Son (jesusjonez here on RRB) did the badge for me.

    Re: Old Soul... headbadge Since this build is going to match my bug, I figured I'd design the head badge similar to the Wolfsburg crest, with a RRBBO 8 spin... 8)

    Re: FireWing 53 Columbia 3 Star DeLuxe - Breakdown+Cleaning Cool wings. So, where are you using 8s this year? Top secret? I have one so far on my Origin 8 cranks, and at least one more to come. I know you'll come up with something clever.

    I was a little concerned at how the bottom bracket adaptor would fit into this frame. Thought maybe it'd either be too loose or way too tight and not even start to go in. Luckily, it'll be a nice press fit. Here it is just set in place ready to press in. I won't mock up my crank set until after...

    So I picked up one of these after market Monark springers.. Very nice unit! Came with cups and bearings, and the dropouts are extra thick stainless that will polish up nicely. Gonna have to trim off about an inch.

    Its not painted yet.. just a bare shell and a pile of new parts. Kind of like this build off bike. It'd be cool if I can have it painted by the time the build off ends.. but I doubt it. Are you entering the build off this year or what?? You can name it ...23 :D Going to try and get some mock...

    Yeah Elite Bicycles is pretty impressive with their selection of stuff. They cater to the BMX crowd and Fixie guys mostly. What I didn't realize is that there's a huge custom market for Razor scooters.. and they have a big section dedicated to just that too.

    I have a set of mini apes set aside for this build.. I also have about 10 other sets of handle bars in all shapes and sizes.... but I'm just not sold on any of them. :? I like the size and shape of these on this motorcycle. I'd like to find something similar? I'm also liking the tail...

    REMIX

    This'll undoubtedly be an epic build.. You definitely have a tough act to follow after last years super cool build! Did you take the Remix picture? What is that rusty hunk of metal? Just curious..
