CWC Roadmaster, build in Brazil

[léocwc]

Wow, you're really going all out on this!
Did you do the pin-striping on the forks with tape as well, or is this freehand?

I want to learn how to do pin-striping by hand, these were made with duct tape.

Beautiful build. Any more photos of your work space, it looks really cool?

thank you,
I'm going to take some photos.

I'm having trouble with the air chambers. they do not support fat frank size 2x2.35. I've already provided larger cameras.

I covered the saddle with black leather.

the extra springs were great.

 

[léocwc]

Perfect leather trim.

Progressing along nicely!

Saddle looks great!

Leo do you mean inner tubes? What size have you put in the tires? Any 26" tube will stretch out to fill a tyre. I guess the only problem you might have is if you have to patch a puncture on a much smaller tube - say 1.5" - the patch might not stretch out with the inner tube rubber and may fail. But I wouldn't be worried with a 2" inner tube if that's what you're using.

It's looking great, love the seat, springs, leather recovering Have you taken it for a test ride yet?

I have not been able to take a test tour yet.
I just sat on it with the bicycle stopped. I felt it soft.


the inner tubes are 2 "but they are not suppressing the 40bar pressure.


I bought specific inner tubes for the fat tires. I'll take it right now.

thank you

Cool...looking forward to more photos and a ride update

 

[RustySprockets]

Wait...40 bar?! That's, like, 580 psi! There must be a decimal point in there somewhere.

 

[RustyGold]

I assumed 40psi...just that bar is probably the standard in Brazil .

I wanted that look of the fenders right next to the tire.

Very nice! What I meant was, "do not chip the paint!"
One chip or scratch would make you cry..
