Sweet transformation!
Love the twin top tubes!
 
Thank you to all, I picked this bike up over 3 years ago and had a vision of what I wanted to do but was hesitant to take on a frame mod that I have never done before. This build off and site members provided the motivation to do so. Everyone is encouraging and supportive!
