Grape Ape 24" Schwinn Mega-Ray (MMBO #4 Class 1)

[greenephantom]

The 24" wheel mega-'Ray rides, shifts, and stops. Metallic violet powder coat and Grape Ape chainguard decal kludge for some other day.

The 5 speed drum set-up makes any frame / fork combo into a geared bike.

Even without the paint, that is still a cool ride!

I really like the pieced together look, you have one awesome RAT

I like it. Sweet ride!!

I remember after a few good wrecks, I had a bike that looked similar back in the late 70s. Except the base frame was orange. Never did get around to painting that one...

Nice Finish.

Building... riding...

Great lines, even without the final paint!

Rat on!

Looks good to me! Tioga Power Block tires are cool on any bike. If you get to painting it later that would be cool, too!

Great formula for a bike update you got going. Looks great as a rat/rider. Purple will be sweet too. Post it up when you get the color done.

A true muscle-rat!

I am pretty strict with my voting, and go through many rounds to get to a final decision, if you had painted it up and had it all shiny, it is possible it may have gotten lost among the other shiny builds, I love it just as it sits, and in my mind it well deserves my vote!
