So I was going to make a quick build w/ parts on hand,or so I thought. Mt. bike frame with simple bar welded on like I had done on the Black and Tan. I would have sworn that I had a 24" rear wheel which is why almost a year ago I bought a 24 x 3.0 to go on it. A nice Rat trap springer and a set...

I used these. They kinda have that high rise to them.They were bought at a LBS though I'm not sure which one. This build did not start off as a military bike but when finished sure looked like one to me.

Yep, I knew it would be too long for practical purposes. I cut down around 14" which meant the stance was different so the bottom metal needed rebent. I was going to carry the arc of the top tube down, but then I noticed the nice curves the old donor bike had so I used that metal. The chainstays...

Hey Chainy, I used to be a bro in law to Dan Severens brother Dave. A mountain of a man. He wrestled for ASU and now he and his wife run a girls wrestling school here in Phoenix.The guy was a gentle giant. His two sons both played football for Montana state,and the daughter was a wrestling champ...

We're getting the same over here in AZ. Its been raining off and on all week,but this last twenty hours or so have been pretty wild. The airport closed down because of wind. We are getting 40-50 mph w/ 60mph gusts. Here in the Phoenix area we have street flooding,tornado watch, washes are all...

Re: Burrito Build ( pics added) I finally got started on this build but didnt make too much progress because of the football game(Cardinals,but that a whole different issue lol :x ) All butt joits are sleeved 3- 6". The HF pipe bender worked great bending the schedule 40 pipe that is being used...

Great Pics !!!,both the baseball and the skaters. I can't wait for spring training. I live across the street from Tempe Diablo Stadium,its pretty cool hearing the play by play from my patio. Spring training in AZ it's the best. 8)

I needed to come up with a basic inexpensive jig to make my next Burrito build a little more precise than "hows that look?" and ''hold this while I tack it". I had always thought the unistrut idea would be a good way to go,mostly because of the adjustments that could be made. On this I used 6"...

Just got the new issue today. #3 Horray !!!!! One of the things I like about the magazine is the ads,most I have never heard of.Messenger bags ,apparel ,etc. 8)

Well I am gathering parts for my next project, a Burrito. It probably wont really start until after New Years. It will be alot like my first one.... Donor bikes........ The Raleigh 7 will be giving up the Nexus 7. I wont cut that one up,just put coaster brake single speed on it and...

Say a prayer,take a book and listen to your Ipod,you'll be fine.

Re: Opinions wanted!!! I like the stem, not the bars. While it does look comfy it just doesnt "blend" :wink: That type of stem would be great for some tall apes.

I'm leaving early in the morning. Flying to Little Rock then driving to Memphis.I doubt I would have time for a bike ride even if I had access to one. The Ground Zero Club is on my itenerary as well as the blues museum and the Cat Head Blues Shop.Should be an awesome experience. 8)

Congrats !!!!! Count your blessings. :wink:

Make your own. Find very small duck figure or head and drill out the bottom and glue a generic cap in it.The dollar store would be a good place to look. :idea:

Within the last 2 weeks I bought a part from a new member with less than 50 posts and almost all were under the for sale thread. The only reason I did it was he had paypal and I really wanted that tank. :lol: . I was happy with the fast shipping and packing. I think pics and paypal should be...

Very cool. I've seen one up close and it looked sturdy,very well made. 8)

Later this week Im headed to Memphis to see my 35 year old stepson who I havent seen in a couple of years. He asked me what I wanted to do while there. I told him NO ELVIS stuff, just some good BBQ and maybe some Blues Clubs on Beale St.This weekend I do want to drive about a hour south and go...

I was under the impression it was every 2 months. The last issue I recieved was Aug./Sep. Ive been wonderin myself. :(
