ok i finally got pics of my progress.
mainly mockup to make sure everything works.\and of course they do not so i will have to modify the frame a bit.
but alas here's what i gt so far.
the front is really tall which is fine since im 5 11 so here is the top of the bars.
i am gonna have a custom pair made for this build so these bars more then likely won't stay just being used for mockup purposes
had to tear into the bottom bracket due to a bad sticking problem and not wanting to pedal
the culprt bearings are in need of cleaning and repacking
gonna use this dash panel to make an mp3 mount/speaker i got this form kingfish awhile back and never knew what to use it on so why not twisted sister can't rock without music lol
frame cosmetic work in beginnign stage basically im gonna do the entire frame in this and gonna use body filler to give the frame a twisted look.
chainguard is getting a repaint in black and pink lettering gonna say twisted sister on it
undecided which pedal to use the originals or the ones on the right which are older but slightly different
prepping the tank for paint gonna be black and gonna put twisted sisters logo on both sides
another frame crack!!! dang that's the second one gotta do some more repairs this one isnt all the way thru and i should be able to fix it easily
closeup of the frame issue it doesn't seem too bad off i think i can fix it.
crankset i will be using gonna clean it up and paint it pink
rear drops will definitely need to be widened to accept the 20x3 tire im gnna do about 2 inches each side should be fine.
my other bikes are like how come he won't make up pretty? don't worry in due time all will be pirty lol
last picture was justa joke pic but that's all i got for now next step is finishing the frame mods and finding a chain and a few other odd ball parts i need to make this badby/girl operable then paint and handlebar modifications then wiring the mp3 hookup and speaker.
lot of work to be done but it's going somewhat in the right direction
more updates soon.
