Jude’s Red Rider: final pic’s

Jude Ephesus · Jan 14, 2023

it’s actually been done for a while; I’ve had trouble finding a good time and place for the final pic’s; I guess for January in upstate NY, this is the best I could do!

Now there's a build that luves up to it's name!
Love all the red elements, and it looks like a good 'rider'as well. Well done,Jude!

Can’t wait for a little more heat and take this thing on a grip and rip around the lake!

Nice, and very red. A cohesive build. I like it a lot.

Great work Jude. Very unique.

as this build for me drug on through the holiday season, I was a bit short on time. (And cash!)

some features that would make this bike a little more unique would be a headlight/taillight, rack and/or a set of chrome mini-fenders.

I made feeble attempts at acquiring each, but didn’t want to spend a bunch of money or invest a bunch of time Into this bike.

I got this thing together sort of bare bones, which isn’t all bad as the extra items add mostly look and weight and not necessarily a ton more functionality.

so, got a cool workout bike and lightweight lake cruiser for summer….. and I’ll probably list it for sale at some point, redeem my investment and someone else can have a unique, reliable, comfortable fitness cruiser.
