Great progress, nice ride!

Thanks OJ! The tire just says "Groove Tread" on it. It's got a couple of grooves in it like an old car cheater slick might have had back in the day. It's 2.125". It is a great looking tire. I'll be using white cables for sure. Hopefully I'll get that done in the next couple of days. I...

Cargo would be really fun. And I also love the idea of a classic British bike build. We could do that as a special build off challenge, like the Cranbrook challenge, whenever that happens. I think some experimentation with build duration might be a good thing. Some builds would get too long at...

I'm in but I'd be more open on the age, maybe pre 1980 And.... I'm out. I have a '51 Raleigh that I'm going to restore that's not nice enough for original paint. It's probably not nice enough to restore even but I do like to revive a very neglected bike. 😆 We could break it down into...

That sounds about right 😆

That could work

I think that scheduling could work. I’d like to keep the offroad class involved, even if it’s an ‘other’ class. Skinny probably too.

I don’t have strong opinions on it either. I just enjoy the builds. Personally, I need to plan to do projects that I can actually accomplish within the time frame, whatever it winds up being. I can do more time consuming or demanding builds in the build section. I still like @GuitarlCarl ’s...

Wow, that's some wild stuff you've built! Fantastic! Welcome to the forum, this is a great place to hang out. Lots of like minded folk here. It seems you're a prolific builder so you might enjoy our other build-offs as well. We're just finishing one up here by the end of the month and then...

Great score on that parts bike. This thing is really coming along. Love it!

I like what you're doing with the exercise bike, pretty cool stuff. We have one of those too, you're giving me ideas. :thumbsup:

I got to work on the Dragster a bit today. Final assembly is fun, you get to see it all coming together. Rear fender sat too high in the back I added a spacer at the upper mount that dropped it into a better spot Getting the rear wheel set up with the spoke protector and outer trim disc...

Disaster averted. Third time thru I found it in the box… with all the other parts for this build. I swear I’d loose my head if it wasn’t attached. 😆

It's at this point in the build-off that I usually start to get stressed out about finishing in time. It's just my personality, I tend to be high stress anyways. My bike is done except for final assembly, it's still in pieces. I have today and tomorrow to finish this up and then I need to be...

Wow, that's gorgeous! Well done :113:

Welcome! That's a pretty cool project. I wonder if @ingola might have any idea on the original color?

Looks great! That stem came out real good. It will be interesting to see how it rides!

Nice work saving that frame, it came out great!

Very cool paint scheme. It will be interesting to see how you replicate it. 👍

Pretty sweet! Looking forward to more. 👍
