Hey Dan,
This is one of my fav. builds.
Any progress, on this cool build?
Im not sure if i can go any further with this build. I cut the fork too short and to try and compensate i cut the head tube and all h*** happened after that. that was the first time i ever hated bikes, I wanted to quit bikes and get a motocycle. This build really hurts me right now, I still dont know what to do. Maybe you could tell me something i cant tell myself. Thanks for caring about it.
What happened after cutting the headtube?? Im sure we can pull our brains together and help ya out. Mark
Oh wow, bad luck hapened to you too huh.
I know how you feel my "first time build"
didn't go as planned either, same week i got a another bike from someone.
I thought; well must be a reason for it, so i left "first time" to be, where i could still see it when i'm tinkering at the workshop.
And started working on the other bike, build is going well. untill today i seem to have created another problem.
but i noticed i wasn't that disapointed with it as with "first time".
Its all because of the inspiration i get from other builders on this site, there's people doing amazing stuff, creative and awesome fabricators.
But there's also people who do simple bolt on builds and make stunning bikes.
I just want to say they started somewhere too, so we can too, and i know you can i've seen some of your stuff, and i think that looks dang cool.
So i would say grab your build together and let people come up with ideas to put you back on track again.
if the headtube is damaged beyond repair, it says in the rules you can change your frame once.
I can't think of any reason why you won't be allowed that.
good luck!!
