Ok, everything is ordered & on it's way!
I didn't want to take a chance & not have the skiptooth sprocket not be compatible with the chain.
So, I made a few changes to some of the parts that I will be using.

I am anxious for everything to get here, so I can put her together & take her for cruise!!
You're using the exact chain as I just put on my latest build, down to the color. It stands out, for sure.
Sweeeeeet!! Maybe we'll run into each other at @ OBC.
Yeah, I'll be the OTHER bike with a copper theme going on.
Just ordered some Sunlite "Deluxe Springer Replica" Forks to try out on this build.
Super bumming....effin Niagara Cycle Works....the forks I ordered from them are not currently in stock from their supplier....yet when I ordered them, the NCW website was showing them in stock!!
This bike is going to be killer!! I look forward to seeing it at OBC
I'm thinking we should set up a RRB'ers meet for OBC. Or we could trade #'s.
I just started an RRB'ers @ OBC Meet Up thread!
Im down for that. I am staying at the nugget and will surely be at the opening party. I will also be grtting in on thursday morn if anyone wants a pre party ride!

Having a couple of frame issues. Going to have to relocate the bottom bracket.
Chain rubbing?
No, I am going to move the BB from it's current location to the front of the downtube. This will give me more leg room to pedal. I just need to cut out a gusset that goes with the flow of the frame.
Careful you don't get too close to the front tire, you will need toe clearance when turning.
