    Finally got to mock things up using most of the parts that will be on the finished build. I've got a pic with no fenders, one with a rear only fender, and one with both fenders on it. Let me know what you think!

    Good god taping and painting rims takes forever. Here's a pic of the rims now that I have them painted red and then a pic of my white walls semi mounted on them. Slowly coming along!

    I got to see this bad boy in person yesterday. It looks great. Those rear tires are way fatter in person than they look in the pics. After seeing what you can do with one of these I wouldn't getting a trike in the future. I can't wait to see what finally touches are going to be made with so much...

    RRBBO13 EC RIDER

    Took a drive out to see my buddy KJV so he could help start to mock up my bike and get a feel for the look I wanted. Threw some apes on it and finally some laced wheels for the first time in 6 years. Here's what I came up with. Then threw on a banana seat, some mounted tires KJV is using for...

    RRBBO13 EC RIDER

    That's amazing! That is definitely my bike! I found a pic of one years ago that was fully restored but didn't have a name listed for the mode so I've never been able to find any info on it. I wanted a tanked bike back when I started so I had this welded on. At times I regret it but after so...

    RRBBO13 EC RIDER

    Using the build off as an excuse to put my bike together that I originally wanted to do 6 years ago. Fell in love with all the cruisers people were riding when I was on a trip out to Huntington Beach from Ohio. Came right home bought a 50's Evans Colson off craigslist and started stripping in...

    Looking for Ohio people

    Lebanon is very northern Cincinnati. It's pretty close to Kings Island. I'm working on a late 50s Evans. It's definitely a unique lookin bike. It has these gutter style fenders. I started it as my first build a few years ago but hit some road blocks and gave up. But I really want to finish it now!

    Project "eNVy"

    Yeah I was definitely planning on a bright green pinstripe with white accents. I actually envisioned going with white tires to set the whole bike off but i think im gonna go this some big white walls just so they wont get as dirty looking. White tires would be sweet though. Im also hoping to put...

    Project "eNVy"

    The pony is actually for sale. It will take alot more than wheels though on a trade :)

    Project "eNVy"

    Thats what im hoping for. The secondary color is neon green, so i think pinstriping in that color will reall pop. Thats what color the wheels are too.

    UCB Hub Project- Perry Two Star B-100 Rebuild
