Loser lane

[StevieZ59]

I will get in on this build. It sounds fun. I will call my build loser lane. Only using bikes and parts from what you see in this pic. These are all the reject bikes from the new shop. That have got moved back into the old shop. That we now call loser lane. What to use? What to use? A light weight? A chopper? A middle weight? Decisions, desions. Stay tuned.

Nice rejects. I'm wondering what the winners lane looks like?

A light weight middleweight chopper? Kewl!

 

[StevieZ59]

Still in the brainstorming stage. Several parts bikes in that row. The green bike is a sterling. It's big cob together.

I call that bike heaven. I must be going to loser lane then. .... !!! If only I hard a parts shop like that.

 

[StevieZ59]

So I have desired to sacrifice from loser lane this Hawthorn light weight. I have always wanted to make a simple board track racer. Going to make it a 3 speed. Using Schwinn wheels the 26x1-3/8 the S6 the odd ones.

 

[StevieZ59]

Got the wheels all set. Just have to dig in loser parts pile for some tires. The S6 Schwinn tires. Also stuck on this 52 tooth front gear. With this suiside 3 speed shifter. Making headway.

Looking forward to build off 12. Have a great idear I have had in my head for a few years. It's finally going to come out. "I'm on a mission from God"

I've always loved those Bendix shifters.
This is gonna be a fun warmup for your BO12 build.

Made small progress. Put on this really older than dirt messenger seat I had laying around the shop. Got the 3 speed shifter mounted. With a roller and a cable with no casing. Works pretty smooth. Also had them old school wheel nut knock off thingys for the front wheel. Need to come up with some tires, a front brake and some number plates still. Maybe a few other smalls.
