Got her back from the powdercoaters today and got some assembly done :mrgreen: no problems so far the chain did rub a little so i just added a couple more shims behind the crank and there is plenty of room probably done till Saturday going to lbs to buy handelbars and peddals. The bottle carrier is just sitting there still need to attach it

Looking sharp!
When I sent your build link to a buddy of mine that works at Coke Corporate, he got a kick out of it. He saw the red on black and thought it was Coke Zero themed. Now with the red frame, I would say it is back to being Fat Coke with all of the yummy calories!!!

 

[ndaway]

WOW im flattered you sent him the link, thats cool 8) . I have some Coke bottle caps to glue over the hole for the horn button and I will put one on the other side too. We have a bike show next weekend so we are going to buy some glass bottles of Coke to put in the carrier. still kicking around ideas for the lights

[ndaway]

Not sure I was going to Tom Sawyers Saturday to have them put the kick stand back together and I think I will just try out every bar they have

sorry my garage is a mess right now i will take a better picture tomorrow. the front tire did rub when you would turn so i had to buy a longer pivot bolt and add some washers to the springer to spread it out some now all is good

added a couple of decals to the seat tube and glued a coke cap over the horn button hole just have to come up with some cool lights..it rides great

took it outside for a better picture 8)

Refreshing Sweetness!!!
Awesome ride!!!
I updated my buddy on your bike. I love the way it turned out. I bet your kids had a blast helping out with it!

 

[ndaway]

Thanks im still new to this..still learning from you guys..still going to do something with lights..kids had a blast

 

[kingfish254]

You are very humble. That is an awesome build. I still consider myself a newbie of sorts. Beer Run was my first Rat build in RRBBO6. I think we are all continually learning from each other. Great site. Great Quality Build!!!! You and your kids should be proud!!

Better keep a close eye on that one at the show this coming weekend! :mrgreen: I may try to bring it home with me after the show! :lol:

Awesome theme build. Looks great!
Im starting my motored bike build and have been thinking of using some fat tires but the wide rims are pretty pricey! What tire brand and rim size are you using. The rim size looks fairly thin, but it could be my small phone screen.

Thanks
