GO George Jetson!!!

[KZ1000]

Don't know about the name yet, I'm in on what will be my first build, Just wanted to get a pic in of what I am starting with, I am leaving tomorrow to attend my son's graduation from Marine Boot camp in S. Carolina so I won't get started on this for a week or two, I have some goodies set aside and what I think are some neat ideas, More to Come

 

[elvis51]

Sheesh...that frame is sweet.

A set of fat white walls and your golden. :wink:

 

[elvis51]

what kinda bike is that exactly?

Easy E

 

[KZ1000]

I think it is a Columbia Fire Arrow, not 100% sure thou

 

[johnny nightwolf]

Definitely a Columbia, but I'm pretty sure that the Fire Arrow was a traditional cantilever frame.

 

[elvis51]

yea im pretty sure its a fire arrow. the only other one ive ever seen was on here. i cant recall whos it is though........

[johnny nightwolf]

Looks like you're right! This is the only kind I can remember seeing before:

 

[JoeyMac]

definitely a cool original frame to start with. that will be a one unique bike for sure!

 

[BankerRAt]

Niiice bike! Best of luck to your son in the Marines, bet your very proud! How about a Marine space bike theme to honor your son?

THey don't go past the front tube. But in an earlier post about KZ's bike, it looked to me like someone cut the tubes and crimped them around the headstock. Like they may have at one time extended past the front.
Nice to have you here KZ. I almost used my fire arrow for this build-off, but decided I wanted to try to keep that one stock-ish. Boring, I know, but I've never seen another one like it besides yours. Can't wait to see how it turns out. :mrgreen:

 

[snfargle]

if any of you guys are into warhammer, or have been into it

a SPACE MARINE bike

 

[JoeyMac]

 

[KOTA]

IMO, that's the nicest frame I've seen to date........Do it up!

 

[schwinnmesa]

That frame is killer!

 

[Unchained]

Hi Rick,

Hope the bike progresses well, I'm very excited to see it entered in the official buildoff- or blastoff, rather.
