I have a little b@$+@rd too. I also have 4 pair of Girvins and none of them fit the little ........ How did you make the headset work. I've got 3 Felt Cruisers I can't finish until I get it right. I also live around the corner in Studio City. Thank you. - Gig
 
Duuuuuuuuuuuude - you have bragging rights. That's super bad-***.
Thank you. It was a frustrating build. I could swear that thing didn't want to look good. I'm working on an Aluminum tank version of it with dual disc brakes and a Sturmey-Archer 8 speed and I'm keeping it. I'm pretty sure it won't look quite this good. The tank makes this frame. It was a bike I couldn't even sell for $250 but after I stripped that dove gray paint off this Navy and gave it the blues it paid me back in full and put extra in my pocket.
 
im starting to craft my little b@stard in to something ive been dreaming about!

I recently sold this bike that I built to keep (tears.) It began life as a Felt Vintage Iron 3 speed. It ended up as a modern day take on a 1914 Yale motorcycle. Dual disc brakes, wide rims (not Felt's,) leather seat, Felt Grips, Felt Cranks, Sealed Bottom Brackets & DiamondBack pedals.

This one is in my kitchen next to my Vintage Iron Bolt Serial#003, which is in a box. It's probably worth a lot of money. Anywho, this black one is a tribute bike to the Fiat Abarths running around these days. I'm still looking for a company to produce an Abarth sticker for the tank so I can remove the Felt Logo. It began life as 1903 but after years at the beach decaying I scrapped everything but the seat post, seat clamp and frame. WAAG did the powder coating in gloss black on the frame, and handle bars (which I bought new and had stripped.) The forks are courtesy of Nirve. The cranks are off of a Haro BMX bike with a Felt sealed bottom bracket. I went with reverse brake levers for stoppage.

If anyone knows how to convert skyways to disc let me know. I've wanted to run discs on this bike from day one. I'll buy 3 of your rear disc brake conversion kits if you have one. I'm nearly done with my revamped "Little ......." (which uses Skyways) and it will be an 8 or 9 speed with a lot of carbon fiber bolted to it so I'll need the stopping power to go with the extra going power.

So this is my revamped "Little ........" I am not quite finished. It has carbon bars, carbon forks, carbon seat post, Haro 3pc. Cranks, 24x3" tires and some other stuff.

Updated on 12/20/14. I took some fancy photos at a warehouse.
