I'm happy the 2.4 tires fit with no mods to the frame. I was going to build this bike for the build off, but I have something bigger in mind as seen in the pic.Looks beefy.

I've been following this frames story since it appeared in the build off. Always look forward to updates.

Ready for a test ride.
Cloudy so it was cooler out today. I didn't need to drop into first gear to get back home, 2nd is very low. The bike rides great!
It's even bigger now! One of my builds got the 26 x 2.4 wheelset, and it just sat in the corner. When the new 27.5 x 2.4 wheelset wouldn't fit the other builds, I tried them on CM and they barely fit. So it is as big as it's gonna get. I need to add rear brakes of some kind.
A lot can change in one day. Back to a big cruiser already. The 26 x 3.0 on 57mm rims fit the fork nicely and the one speed rear needs dropout extensions to work. I have a set from a previous build to try on there later.
