Only slightly. We used pre-exsisting drill holes. I think he needs another two inches of brace to get the right height.

If you had 2 clamps that fit the sissy bar and bolt to them you could adjust how high the wheels are maybe but it would look much cleaner with longer bars mounted the way you already have it . I'm sure it will look good however you do it .
Also, the bar needs to take the stress of the wheelie, time and time again, so my idea of moving the brace farther away from the wheelie wheels probably isn't a good idea after all.
Started building the longer struts. They'll go on, along with some testing and donated RRB decals. Pics tomorrow.
Installed the longer struts. A much better stance.
Took all the bikes out for a ride. Even though he loves his Dill, he's been riding it a lot. So my youngest son is very excited about The Judge since it's new, so he wanted to ride it. So my oldest son rode the Dill. Attempts were made to ride the wheelie bar, but it's actually a tough skill, so they've got to practice... so no wheelie pics.

Here's the complete bike! I traded RRB Steve some parts and asked for a shirt and decals for my son. So he's wearing his shirt and adorned his Dill with some RRB swag! Taken in front of his school for some OLD SKOOL COOL!
Here's 2 years of MBBO entries. (Last year's winner was sold)

Great job!
Man those forks bring back lots of memories from when I was his age. Mine never got welded though and would sometimes come apart when you least expected it.

I just now realized you used a spoke protector on the back with a coaster brake hub. That's a neat feature.
I think this is my favorite build of the entire build off.
Stole the idea from CCM bikes. I showed him and he liked the idea because he said it made the wheel look "tough".
Much appreciated! We had a lot of fun building it together, and I love watching him ride what he built. I've got to start hunting for another project for him because he wants to do more!
"Very Cool" bike young man, reminds me of the choppers I built as a kid ! I think the Raleigh chopper also had a spoke protector on the single speeds.
you got one of my votes !
