Man that's a good looking bike. The color combo... everything. Glad you mishap wasn't any worse.

It was great to meet you there at Suzies. The bike is definitely sharp! I think my favorite piece is the headlight.

All I could think about as the pavement approached was "save the paint!!!"

I am so glad you saved the paint.

And by the way, glad you survived as well.

Thanks for the compliments guys!

Yes, CCR its absolutely OK to laugh! I was laughing my butt off once the "mishap" was over. Luckily the ride stopped at the next nearest pub and I was able to dilute my embarrassment some..

Several folks thought LACKLUSTER was a new or reproduction bike... Is that a good,,, or bad thing??

Re: >>>LACKLUSTER<<<

I would say thats a good thing, thinking something handbuilt looks factory, thats quality brother!!!

Re: >>>LACKLUSTER<<<

Good looking bike!!! I also like the colors.
I was trying to get one of those springers but the price went to high. I'm too old for endos anyway. Did one 10 years or so on a new mountain bike with disc brakes.

Thank you sir. I'm not a fan of unwanted endos either. It was after all, a shakedown ride... I'll be solving that issue with either a smaller front tire or lengthening the axle mount location on the rockers... or both.

Did the Suzie Burger incident look something like this? :wink:

Pretty close... now just balance the bike very precariously on on leg!! :lol: :lol:

Re: >>>LACKLUSTER<<<

As much as I love the fat look of the Jeralds on the front and rear.. Something has to be done about my unwanted front brake issue. I found a Schwalbe slick that I might try out. The price is decent, but it'll be a total shot in the dark. Its just the first option I've came up with as far as a smaller slick front tire goes..

Yeeeaaa... that lack of tire clearance is definitely not safe! That thought I had about avoiding all bumps.... thats impossible, :? I'm just sayin.

Here it is in 26x2.0. Hard to tell exactly how much smaller it'll be. They also make a 26x1.50 which (IMO) would be too small and just not look right.

Re: >>>LACKLUSTER<<<

Just cover your bike (and yourself) in bubble wrap and go for it!!!!

 

[raggedjim]

Re: >>>LACKLUSTER<<<

I have one of those Kojak's, but it's a 16" (anyone want's it let me know, I'll make a great deal on it!). You probably don't need that much clearance! They are a great tire and good quality.

Glad you or the bike weren't damaged.
