Awesome!I am going to jump in the stock / restore class with this wheelie bike frame.

Just figured I would remind everyone, that we are running pretty open rules, same as last year, so if you want to do more than one build in the timeframe, go ahead!
Only thing is they must be entered separately, separate build threads and separate photos for judging...

Hehe, I know man I want to start BAD...Scored my rear tire! Now it's getting more difficult sitting still til September 1! Since we have a time zone difference, would building it in our time disqualify me?
BUT we got 4 months to work on them so what's another 4 days...
Carl.
For an impatient fellow like myself, the anticipation is killing me. Hahaha! Usually it only takes 2-3 weeks tops for my builds. Once I've started, not a day goes by that I don't eat, sleep, breathe bike building til it's done...yes, I think i have a problem
I know the feeling. I got my rear tire the other day and its driving me crazy wanting to see how it fits the bike.Scored my rear tire! Now it's getting more difficult sitting still til September 1! Since we have a time zone difference, would building it in our time disqualify me?
All I know is the tires I want look a lot better than the MTB tires on it now...

I believe LukeTheJoker is in our time zone also, so it should be ok. I have my new rear tire also, 20 x 2.125, but I'm still looking for something bigger.
< wants a 26" Jerrold Sulky Slick....
and a 20 x 1 3/8 front tire...

That tire will need the wide stingray size wheel.
