Going with this Hawthorne frame threadless fork fits perfectly. Whole lot more come quickly

I was hoping you sneak back in to the fun in the final quarter!
I like the triple tree n that frame.

That Snyder frame looks like a good choice. Do you know what year it is? Or the serial number? I'm trying to match the dropouts to time frame for my research.

BTW, Those Duro 3 inch tires ride great for a big tire.

Thanks! I sure do love the curves of this frame. All I know is post war. Maybe mid to late 1940’s ? Can’t wait to get some miles on these tires.

Yeah somehow always end up on the short end here. But looking forward to getting it done. Thanks!!

Check the number(s) on the BB. I can get the year from those. There should be an EH or SN followed by 2 digits. I think those dropouts are what they first went with after the prewar rear facing drops in the late 40's.

Now it’s time to get miXed…

The new frame rocks! Looking forward to seeing what the mixing bowl turns into.

Is it a helmet with eye holes.

 

[Skipton]

Had this bowl for years waiting to do this.
Some fine tuning and I think it’s going to work.

 

[kingfish254]

Dude! That is way cooler than a helmet!
Honestly, that looks so wicked even as a mockup. So perfect for a skipton geometry build too. Love this!

That needs a propeller on it.

 

[kingfish254]

That needs a propeller on it.

Depends on if it is a Pylon Racer,

or a cafe racer

 

[Skipton]

Thanks guys!!!
Yep more cafe racer.

 

[Da Gas Man]

YES!

 

[OddJob]

Where's the beef?

 

[GuitarlCarl]

I've got a handful of nice wood propellers if you ever wanna go there on this or something else...

 

[kingfish254]

Don't leave us hanging with this sick idea!!!
Get to building!!!! Tick Tock!!!

 

[Dr. Tankenstein]

My strandie started out as Workhorse, I badged it as a ‘Schwinn’ because (with exception of the head tube size, Schwinn is 1”, Workhorse is 1 1/8”) it’s the same frame.
Looking forward to seeing what you do with yours!

 

[Skipton]

Let’s get this done..

More to come
