Excellent job on this bike. Love the whole concept. Ever since I ran into forums discussing this style of bike I started noticing them around. Right now there is a homeless man where I walk my dogs that own one of these F1 bikes. He has been riding it for a couple of years now.
Work it. Trade him for a bike with a basket and a blanket.
 
Looking sweet! :cool2: I'd have to push the bars forward. The stye fits perfect.
I'm not into wheel covers but on F1s they work for me.

What's the cartridge and spindle length?
Size cup headset, Is it the Standard BMX size? The Qualifier uses 30mm cups. Cant use 1-1/8'' steering tubes unfortunately:(
Top tube length?
I should've asked for the frameset weight earlier.
I’ll get the specs tomorrow, It was a Phil wood cartridge. European BB. Headset is road bike diameter, Campagnolo headset. get dimentions tomorrow.

Gave it some Formula 1 rat rod treatment this evening. Going for that Hutch HPV vibe. Had this laying around from one of my old Harley builds

Tight:thumbsup: I remember the Hutch ads when it was new. Almost bought a crusty cracked yellowed one a while back.
Oh man, wish I was there to collab. Together we'd make a killer F1.

Thank you for the specs brother.

Worst Bondo Job Ever

Good eye for the resurrection.
Oh, you're never seen my bondo jobs. Eons ago I made an orbiting space station from Kleenex, tinfoil, olive oil, duct tape, shogoo and bondo. I’m still on it, out there somewhere in orbit, way ahead in my knowledge of what that James Web gizmo will ever figure out. I practiced by building a car out of duct tape, bondo and sticks. That’s the one Elton Musk put into outer space, he and I are buds. Ya know, derz no need tellen a tale unless you are allowed embellishments. You know, I’m a renown pull sitter but pale in comparison to dat fren a mine, Kaka Pileakrap, who lives on hivay “Kowsit Lats”. Look dat street up. What, you don tink dats a true someplace? Local dialect changed the pronunciation, but. I ll be going dere on dat Friday next. It’s near my favorite pub in Gay Michigan. Bucket list, get kicked of RRB again and get arrested for something new. Poaching might be a goal, they take your gun and car away, but that would be doing me a favor.
