This is my latest build, it's a Giant Stiletto.
I've added a 700 C polished aluminum front rim with black spokes with a super skinny road bike tire.
The back wheel is an aluminum 24" er with black spokes. The rear tire is a Hoggy G 3.45" wide slick from 3-g bikes.
I added an old 5 speed stick shifter to the frame and cut a slot in the fake gas tank for the shifter. I made the shift knob out of an old miniature pool cue ball. Even tho the shifter is a 5 speed, the back wheel is a 7 speed. I have it set up to only shift 1-5 gears because the shifter woudl not accomadte the other 2 gears.
The handlebars are specialized aluminum mountain bike bars.
The rear fender and gas tank are going to be painted pagan gold flake and plans are to have them both pinstriped in white. (because the seat is black with white piping)
This bike was a total wreck when i got it, and the frame was about 90% rust.
The tank, chain guard and fender had been painted with a brush.
I'll probably call it the re-cycle-er because most of the parts that i'm using on it came from used, junk bikes. so far the only brand new parts are the tires.
