Maple monarch getting wood!

[The Renaissance Man]

The fenders fit the fat tires perfectly, looks great!

It may be a little premature to judge the chrome at this point. There's plenty of time to refine things after seeing it with the rest of the hardware in place.

Did I say something offensive?

By premature I meant that I felt that it's still early (at least in my mind) to judge how the chrome will look in concert with the rest of the parts that have yet to be seen on the bike. Things like the wood above and also things like the crank, stem, and bars which may also be chrome. Those additions might cause a different reaction to the chrome fenders.

I will try to keep my opinions to my self going forward. Peace.

You're taking this way too seriously. Note the 'laughing face' at the end of my comment.

 

[The Renaissance Man]

Fair enough. Sometimes emoji faces can send mixed messages.

Back to the build, nothing to see here.

Getting ready to add wood

Cardboard cad

Traced out luckly I only need to make one perfect the router will do the rest.

[MattiThundrrr]

Shoot man, it's already looking solid with the cardboard tank. Lines are looking good. I don't hate that double kickstand either

Loving your build brother. Color choices are spot on!
Can't wait to see how the wood plays into this as well.
Killer build!

[The Renaissance Man]

Wait.

A Canadian that doesn't recognize Maple from Walnut?

Don't be to harsh on the Canadians, they are not at the top of their possibilities right now...
