Redid the spacers and nuts on my front wheel and added these as my faux rocker beehive springer arm braces.

looking awesome bro !!
Seeing @flyingmachine 's grips, it reminded me that I had these yard sale shishkabob skewers. The handle springs may become accent springs.

Took starsNbars into Queenfish's garden and tried the accent springs midway

And down low. If I use them, I like them down low much better.

Very cool, love the rockers and added springs!

Springs always good, the lower position does look best

Thanks guys. I am happy with the springer direction.
After looking at the pics some more, I don't think I am going to use the headlight mounted in front of the beehive. Without a fender that just looks to visually unbalanced having the light stick out so far in front of the bike.

Keep the Beehive, springs in lower position and don't use the chain ring as it really doesn't fit this build.

I agree on all three points. I don't know why I keep trying that chainring.

Maybe because I used one and it looks killer on my build...

That must be it, but I can't find it on your build. Is it the headlight bracket.

Headlight and seat spring brace, all from the same chainring.

Your killing it again this year. Love your bike so far.

And now for all the dobbie-wackers to find thr way onto this rolling beast....

 

[LukeTheJoker]

Have you thought about bolting something on to the lower holes on the "rockers" maybe even some matching reflectors if you do end up going that way?
Not that it does not look good as is, just gives an opportunity for experimentation...

I did try one item and felt like it was distraction. I'll either leave the hole or just put a nut and matching acorn nut.

I still haven't come up with a support that I like that goes under the beehive spring itself. But I think I know what will give me the shape I need. The front end of a nanner seat. I hate to cut up a good nanner, so I am checking with a local junk bike seller and also put a want ad here on RRB. If you have a trashed nanner seat pan, let me know.

EDIT: I found a nanner pan locally.

Actually Doobie-wackers, aussie old age can't remember what they are called thingy's.... yep Will have you speakin Aussie in no time mate,no worries....

 

[kingfish254]

Partially stripped down the nanner seat pan to get a feel as to whether it will work for the beehive support.
