Ah double thanks ;)

Ok, It's been a while I've posted a message here, but still checking the forum almost daily to admire the splendid work done here by everybody. I didn't made it in time with the BBO4 but have done some work on the Rubberrat, which I will show later this week in that...

I'm afraid I won't make it before august 1st. I'll be on holiday next week and I am far to busy to finish it before friday. Of course I'll post the end result when I'm done but this Build-off I gues, I'm in it just for show ;)

Re: Riki-Tiki-Rati That wrench for the brake-arm is a great idea! I was thinking about using a very big rusty wrench I have found years ago for using as a lever for a suicide brake on one of my future projects. This one I'm going to "lent" from you than I think.

Could you repost these plans, I'm interested but the limit of 10 downloads has already reached. Or can I find it somewhere else on the web?

I'll post some later, don't have much time at the moment but in 2 weeks vacation starts :D I'm from the other side of Holland: Alkmaar

Wow that turned out so nice. I don't know what it is but it got some kind of Swedish flavour to it (in a positive way, that is off course)

Welcome Marco, from another Dutchman. That's a sweet bike you build for your kid. The other one is looking good too. I see the same kind suspended mountainbikeframe in there with wich I'm busy building a rat too.

Re: Schwinn Excercisor Stretch. love this one! especially the seat. I might use something simillar on a future bike if thats ok with you

Re: Rubber rat - update new pics 20-5-09 First mock-up. My bike is now ride-able again. It's pretty basic now. All covered with inner tube. Even the seat. The headlights I'm not sure of, planning one big light with galvanized steel. There will be a galvanized steel chain guard and fenders (a...

Re: Rubber rat - update with pics 11-5-09 Ok, I decided to stick to the plan and build on with the Rubberrat and keep that one for the build-off. I guess Genesis has to wait. I'll finish it later and post it here (got some nice plans with it). Anyway, I worked on the fork for the Rubberrat...

Re: BILLET BULLIT (custom breaklever) may 15th I'm impressed too by all that handwork :shock: . It's looking really slick!

Re: un-named as yet Shopzilla?

Re: Rubber rat Ok, finally some time for an update. I stripped the bike and found some donorbikes. One of them was a mtb with suspension witch was abandoned lying in my street. When I saw it I thought it would perfectly supply the triple tree fork I had in mind for my Rubberrat. The funny...

An url? Here you are: http://www.davyakkerman.nl Not so much new work of mine, haven't got the time to update yet

What a nice finish. I'll try that on a bike one day. I'm pretty new to ratrod so how/with what do you clearcoat rust? just with some lacker?

Hallo and welcome from a fellow Dave who calls himself Wave :P

Thanks all for the welcome. This forum is so active, I almost can't keep up with all the new topics and replies! But I will try to react so now and then. @BHV BIKES: That would make you half a Dutchman would't it? :P. Alphen aan de Rijn (nice way to write it phonetic the way you did :) )is...

Ok, this will be my first build. And this is my starting point ( well sort of, did some small experiment on the stir already): She's a beach cruiser from the Hema (kind of Dutch Wallmart) which I've used for about 4 or 5 years now. Time for some change. As you would reckon there will be...
