Got some apes for you in the Odd Garage. Come an get em. Nice progress on the bike.

Thanks buddy, I'm going to need em. I have decided that if I use this back wheel & tire, I'm going to swap out the front 1.75 for a little bigger 1.95 tire. Front looks too skinny with the tall fat rear tire.

i like the look of that last Mock up , your heading in the right direction . Looks great !

Think I will go with these bars that I got from my buddy "ODDER" & thinking about using this seat instead of the banana seat. But nothing is engraved in stone. Changed the front tire from a 1.75 to a 1.95.

 

[ODDER]

Lookin sweet buddy. That seat looks like a robot hand. A painful, pinchy robot hand. Build on. I dig it.

 

[pick]

Probably not the most Butt friendly, but it does look cool! Jakester will be riding it anyway!

You could always slide a little clear tube over the springs on the seat, maybe flip those C clips over, it might then be rather comfortable...

That made me think of some of that thick clear vinyl they cover furniture with, what a cool thing to cover a seat with... pick has the perfect seat to cover with clear vinyl...

I'm ditching the 20 x 3 tire idea & going with a 20 x 2.125 slick instead,

Pick I know this is off topic but your apple symbol is familiar. Do you have a c cab rat rod named bad apple? If not oh well sorry for asking.

No, I wish I did! I'd love to see a pic of it if you have one.

Dug out another accessory for this build:

I just noticed the bare spring seat and the comments about covering it with clear vinyl.

Just a tip, if you use that seat. Definitely cover it, I used the same type of seat on Artemus. Those springs are pinchy, I used thin leather to cover mine.
The seat isn't to bad in my case, it's just the whole bike is uncomfortable.

No sorry I don't it was a old facebook friends from a rat rod page don't really remember who it was that's why I was asking
