Ditto on the red seat !! Totally “Red Barron” . What became of the chain guard ?


The guard is still in the mix. I just have to do some work to mount it and whatnot. It's only been in mockup mode so far,
 
HOPE EVERYONE HAS A HEXtreme FOURTH OF JULY!!!!

Here is a walkaround video I did yesterday.

 
Totally agree on the red seat! It fits well into the HEXtreme scheme, and fits the rider; what more can you ask?!

I really dig that photo with the painted flag on the wall. The lighting and coloring is just right!

:nod:

I think the biggest thing was the overcast lighting we had yesterday. It made for some very even lighting with no glare and no shadows.
 
Here is another round of pics from yesterdays ride.

The tourists were out in force on the pedal pubs.

The humidity makes it quite tropical sometimes.

I really like the red seat on there! That bike is so cool and modern looking with what you've done to it, hard to believe the frame is from the 30s

Thanks man. The duralium Silver King frames started in the mid 30s, but my alluminum Silver King Hex tube was built in 1947.
 
Here is round two of the ride pics.

I'm used to seeing the UK flags on Six Pence Pub, but the American bunting caught my eye this time. Happy 4th!

Thanks man. It's been fun so far having all of these parts play together so well. Still more to do though.

Once again, I am never surprised at what I might see on a ride in Savannah. This tourist and his wife were out for their daily run. I couldn't help but yell "Run Forrest Run!".

Some closeups of the flag pics from one street behind me and one block over.

Saw this cool fence treatment on the bball courts in Forsyth Park

The green grass of the park really makes bikes pop!!! I posted a walkaround video here earlier.

There are some steps to Remove Your Bike Crank Without Actually Using a Puller. First, twist and turn all bolts counterclockwise to loosen and remove bike crank nut or bolts, remove all washers. Use specific crank screws and nuts when identifying and removing cranks. Insert the spindle into the available slot assigned to it, twist in a counterclockwise motion, removing the puller thread from your bike’s crank.


HUH??
 
I think someone’s pulling your crank !!

My guess is that it's a bot pulling my crank since that is their only post ever on RRB. :D
