**FINISHED** The Begining of my 26" BMX Santa Barbara Cruiser Build!

[The Phantom]

yep, the new saddle gives it a cleaner look, it really suits the bike

 

[Araya51]

Sweet looking cruiser.!!!

 

[Robertk]

Thx all.

Bicycle808 helped me figure out the right size BB, so shouldn't be too long before this one is complete and on the streets!

 

[Bicycle808]

It's gonna be incredibly rad... I've been eyeing-up the SBC website, but I gotta finish some other projects first. But did you see this one?!

So hott. RobertK, your build is inspiring me to blow more money on cruisers.... but, in reality, i can't blame you. I'm gonna blow money on cruisers regardless; you're just giving me some direction!

 

[Robertk]

@Bicycle808 - Hahaha! That is an awesome looking SBC frame! I need to check out the site, I have not seen that one before - super cool!

 

[Bicycle808]

Yeah, the caption says they only made the one frame like that, but that they'd make more if a customer orders one. Looks hot to me...

 

[Robertk]

Got the BB and it's installed. The SBC should be complete this weekend! Can't wait!

Robertk, that bike is beautiful.

 

[Robertk]

Thanks Twister! Non-drive crank arm is hitting the frame, so need to work on that.

 

[Robertk]

Fixed the non-drive crank arm. Fortunately, I had checked the clearance before fully assembling pedals, chain, etc. So no chipping or scraping occurred to the frame. The problem is now fixed with proper crank to frame clearance on both the drive and non-drive sides and have a NOS set of black Cycle Pro 9/16 pedals on their way. Once the pedals are on and I purchase a chain. We will definitely be good to go!

Good to hear!

Luke.

 

[Robertk]

Pedals! Chain is also in hand. So close now!

 

[Robertk]

Still debating on decal set whether or not to use them. Thoughts?

 

[Robertk]

Finished!

 

[Rat Rod]

If I were to put decals on that bike I'd choose transparent with black lettering.

Turned out really nice!

 

[Robertk]

Thanks Rat Rod!

 

[Araya51]

I agree with Rat Rod..
Let the letters stand out with color of the frame show threw..
Man that cruiser came out sweet..

 

[Robertk]

Thanks Araya!

 

[DeuceWheeler]

Insane!

As I think the kids still say, "that bike is Sick!". Nice job.
