I had to think of a ridiculous name for this ridiculous project. It started life as a purple Roadmaster women's mountain bike that had an overdose of "patina". I ended up cutting the stem to remove the fork. PB blaster is now working magic on the remainder of the stem so the fork can be used elsewhere when the time comes. I got the cranks flipped (it is going to be a tall bike) and a fork from a LaJolla installed.

I plan on getting the seat tube and brace welded on today. I need to find my thinking cap as well, it has my design for my upper steering. :shock:
 
Re: The Purple Nurple

Ouch, I think after riding it in it's current setup, you would definitely end up with a purple nurple!!!
