Loser lane

[Missing Link]

Those are great seats, they look slick and are pretty comfy to boot, good choice.

Loving this build!

This is my loser lane next to the Hiawatha. All girls bikes stripped of their glory to be used for other projects. And speaking of this build, all parts except the frame are from girls bikes. So does that still count as a ... change? And I didnt even use a TRM tank

Tires are on!!!!!!! Just hunting around for peddles and some grips. Gona get creative on the number plates.

Made my grips-bar rap out of a old tube. Also came up with a set of beat up peddles.

Bar wraps look good! Have you tried that before? How well do they last?

 

[StevieZ59]

Never tried it before. Just trying it on a wim. Was a brainstorm I had. Which does not happen to often.

Lovin' it. A lightweight, multi-speed, stick-shifting, board tracker in the true rat tradition. Pure genius.

We used to wrap chainstays with old tubes to protect the from chain slap on bumpy descents, they worked great getting beaten by a chain on a regular basis. I imagine they would work good for bar wrap as well, and if it gets damaged replacement is cheap and easy!

First time I have tried it. I'll let you know how it works out. Thanks. So far it's cool.

Some mock up number plates. I made out of some plastic rubber whatever's I found on my garbage route. I may just leave it at that? I might be heading to the finished bikes thread after I get some cool pics of this hot rod someplace.

I really like the shifter placement for this build.
Super idea on the bar wrap. You can cover the taped areas with cross sections of tube as well.

I am pretty much done. I just need to get a nice final pic once it warms up.
