Wow, you really knocked it out of the park with this stretch, Brian! I like that it's subtle, doesn't scream out, "Hey look at me, I'm a stretch bike!" It's just long and low and coool.

Thanks Matti that was my plan.
Wow, this really turned out great! The overall flow of the bike works well and the proportions are just right. Must be fun to cruise with the family. Nice work!
Thanks always fun riding with the grandkids even though couple always end up lagging behind and having to wait for them to catch up.
Figured I would see what the original handle bar would look like and I have to say I like it matches the patina of the frame guess it should since it came off it lol.
I took a couple tests rides and not liking the way the original handle bar felt the handle grip comes to straight back. I like the way the one I made is and I made them for this bike so I went back to it.
I also cleaned up the bell so it doesn't clash with the handle bars new paint. While I had it out I got my 62 Columbia out to take some comparison pics.

I think this will be my finished version changed out the tires hoping the skin wall tires would fit my class 1 build but no luck. I like the look of the cream tires on here so they will be staying. Just need to get out and get some finished build pics thinking I will check out the new park not to far from the house.
Dig the tires! Get a nice lush green grass backdrop behind the bike. Your colors will pop against the green!
The cream tires are the deal on this bike!
Thanks was debating those or the skin walls I think both looked good but the cream a little better.
