    I put another 7 miles on it today. This is a nice solid rider. I’m pretty pleased with it so far. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    I had time today so I put my new front tire on. Double checked 3/4 of everything and went for a ride. Of course I forgot to tighten my shifter. Being stuck in second gear isn’t bad. Bike is fun to ride. I’ll have to get a longer seat post. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Made it out for a test spin. I need to shim the bars. The seat post is a little too short for riding. I still need to clean the front rim and put the new tire on. It’s sweet ride and shifted nicely. I need to fix the Kickstand the first gust of wind and it fell over [emoji2373] Sent from...

    I had high hopes of maybe taking a test spin today. Nope our AC unit broke down. So we went out junk shopping. I love watching stuff on dead formats :) Goodwill had everything half off today Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    I wanted a wider rim for the rear. I bought a rim to speed things up. My original plan was only to use vintage parts. BUT my work schedule has been hectic and I really want to finish on time. Maybe at a later date I might go with skinny tires all the way around. I love mantaray and fastbacks. I...

    The. black rim gives it a hot rod look. I need to either replace this nut with a thinner one or stretch the frame. Maybe both [emoji2373] I’m going to spread the frame a tad. I only need a half an inch or so. Forgot to use the tape measure in this pic Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
