First project - Finished

[Woodie]

Hey,

Iv been hanging around here for a while now checking out everyone's rides and thought id put up my little project.

This is how it landed from the bike shop

half hour later and the baskets where gone ...... few days later and its in bits being rubbed back and sprayed

So far I have all black - Chain wheel, crank, bottom bracket, ape hangers, grips, seat, stem and I'm just waiting on the black headset.

I made up a custom seat post to get a bit more distance between me and the bars that I will add photos of later.

all going well I will have it back together this weekend ready for a ride

Cheers,It was kinda one of those things that was born out of necessity. I wanted more layback than any post I could get locally so I just looked through the scrap bin in my shop until something hit me.

I ended up cutting the tube on he bike shorter so the post sat lower and it looked better in the end.
