Esqueleto (April 22 update)

[pacman270]

Hello fellow bike lovers and builders. My brother and I have decided to start building custom bicycles. We are going by the name of Los Muertos Customs. This is the first bike that I am building. I am not sure what brand of bike this is. It is an older bike. The seat post was the quill style kind with the long bolt and the wedge at the bottom. Well i put a slit in the back of the post so I could use a newer seat post clamp.

this is it when first picked it up

Re: Esqueleto

I thought the "ribs" were just the right touch.

Re: Esqueleto (fender update)

Here are a couple of pics of the fenders that I am going to put on the bike. The fenders will be powder coated gloss black and the spikes will remain chrome.
