Hey rat rod bikers! New to the forum as I came looking for advice on fork cutting and re threading. I started with 3 schwinn's an 80 apple krate clone, 74 5 speed, and a 69 stik shift fast back, all purchased when I was in my early teens. Fast forward to now I am 31 years old just bought a house and got to cleaning the bikes up and I am addicted for buying a fixing up more. I recently bought a 98/99 orange krate that is awesome and put back together a 66 coppertone 3 speed. Last I am working on a 70 rat rod patina sting ray I am assembling with all scrap parts. Looking forward to share my progress and learn as much as I can about the hobby. Here is a picture of a couple of mine at KRATEFEST 2022.
