Elgin Offroad: Klunked Out BMX Hybrid

[Robertk]

Picked up the chain....

 

[Robertk]

Got the stem, handlebars, grips, and old school Dia Compe levers installed. Decided to use the seat from my SBC cruiser build - next up: cables and chain, then tune, then ride!

Man, that's a thing of beauty! Everything's just right, I'm lovin' your style! I would be afraid to ruin that paint job riding through dirt though, hehehe. Do you have plans on abusing it? ;-)

 

[Robertk]

Well, I definitely plan to take it off road!

I am with Joe, that paint is far too nice!

Great looking build, looks clean running the drum brakes! What size spokes did you use?

 

[Tomburr]

What bars are those, and where did you get them?

 

[Robertk]

Yeah, the paint is outstanding. I really should have told more about it in the earlier posts. It was performed by Scott Auto Body in Charlotte, NC.

If you live in the NC, SC, GA and need auto body work done, these guys are the pros. They specialize in high end luxury auto repairs, but of course will help anyone out. I highly recommend them as their work demonstrated in this thread speaks volumes!

Not sure of the brand of bars, but they are pretty wide +29". Found them on the Bay a while back.
