BO15 Nouveau Style (previously Shop-rod)

That's it for today. And probably for a week or so.

That will definitely balance out the overall look of the bike, and serve a purpose. That's one mud guard that will definitely make a splash!

Front gaurd painted and the wire for the front light now runs through the frame. What a faff that was!

I lost the momentum a bit with this. My mistake was to move it from the workshop to home. I put it in the garage and, well, other things took my attention!
(I'll give you a clue... It has 4 wheels and an aluminium body..... It also now has a rebuilt alfa engine and custom exhaust..

But... Now I'm back focused!
I've started lining the inside of the panniers with fake leather and foam.

Some impressive work going on here David. That mud guard! Wow. You can tell you have a lot of experience working with sheet metal.

Measuring,drawing,cutting, sewing and sticking!

 

[David Cooksey]

Done.

 

[David Cooksey]

actually, its all done!

I just need to find a suitable location for the "finished thread" shot. I tried a couple of places over the weekend, but didn't quite "do it" for me.

 

[David Cooksey]

It does ride really nice though. The gear ratio is perfect.
Oh and it does get noticed lol

 

[David Cooksey]

A couple more, very diverse locations

David, I like this shot, just a little closer up. Shows the bike better, but keeps enough of that complimentary blue in the photo.

WOW! Nouveau Style looks incredible! I seriously love how you built your bike to be a practical, modern city cruiser, with the right amount of wild and crazy to make it pop! The amount of work you put into it, from all the metal-forming to the upholstery, really shines through in the finished product. Looking forward to seeing it on the Finished Bikes thread soon, and best of luck to you come voting time!
