FAR OUT FLYER (stick a fork in it she is done)

[karfer67]

So i download tapatalk again and what do i find? You guys just started a winter build off. Well i just tossed this Murray in the stand and tossed a rat trap springer on. So why not lets go. Obc is a few weeks after the finish so it gives me something to shoot for.

i had wondered if u can stuff a 26x1 3/8 in one of these forks and well yes you can. This is a 24" fork by the way

Great bones to start with. The frame, I think, is a Huffy though.
Should be a cool build with the 24" rat trap w/the rockers flipped. Can't wait to see how it turns out.

Oh yea forgot your right haha. Let the chopping begin

That Huffy has some RRB history to it too.
It's one of the first bikes that Tyler (@American Vintage Bicycle Supply ) built up.

I suppose I could stick around and see what happens with this.

Glad to see you in Karfer!
Will that tire bottom out in the fork when the spring moves?

I dont think it will have much travel. It has about 1/2 inch of room.

I have a 26" rat trap springer.
I was wishing there was more travel on mine too.
In fact, I haven't used it on anything yet...
The shorter fork brings the stance down a bit eh?
Cool.

this is why im running a 26x1 3/8 front. Ive had this tire for about two years. Scored it in a pile of tires. No idea how old it is but check out that tread. Its also a little more squared off so yes its narrow but has a beefy look
