[QUOTE="BartRidesEternal, post: 1222834, member: 28515"] Hi guys, little time, but some updates: [IMG]https://i.imgur.com/DCosw3l.jpeg[/IMG] [IMG]https://i.imgur.com/TAX19Xl.jpeg[/IMG] Front brake adapter as good as assembled. Some finishing details left. Very happy with the 'clamping' idea: The front brake arm is placed against the front nut. Then the flat section from the rear nut is placed against that arm. Then turn the hex nut to remove play. I hate that in original 'drum brake forks', when you hold the front brake and move your bicycle a bit and you can feel the play in the arm. [IMG]https://i.imgur.com/KKyihLK.jpeg[/IMG] Seat assembled for a testride. [IMG]https://i.imgur.com/k53sqxS.jpeg[/IMG] Sandblasted and painted chainguard. Here I am finishing chain assembly. [IMG]https://i.imgur.com/rHRO9xB.jpeg[/IMG] Long chain! [IMG]https://i.imgur.com/qmNcGAD.jpeg[/IMG] Brake lever came in! The guy also sold an antique stamp brake! Awesome find. The stamp brake is not for ze choppa. :crazy: [IMG]https://i.imgur.com/CcqKHjd.jpeg[/IMG] [IMG]https://i.imgur.com/QB2k93Z.jpeg[/IMG] Testdrive right before dark! This purple people eater rides smooth and wants to go fast! Love it! 44-22t gearing for those wandering. Maybe we can arrange a 'chopper speedway' race? Makes me think of Dirtquake!
