cbc20 ready?

CBC20 all the way

I’m so excited. I’m in love. Last night was he first time for me to see it in it’s solid physical form, but I think I’m doing the steel-gods’ proper. Got it tacked up and just a few more little things (like a big round of melting the rest together) then I get to build it up and ride it.



Did I get it straight? Lolz

 

[rev106]

Cool!

I see your friend on the pegboard in the background of the first photo is equally as excited as you… and you have every right to be excited because that’s one very cool frame… well done.



Glen.

Fabulous Fabrication!

Wow, wasn't expecting it to go in that direction - or those 2 diresction ...very nice...I'd like to try some internal cable routing one day. Where will it exit the frame?

 

[O’Curren Metal Farm]

Thanks y’all. The internal routing doesn’t really come out of the frame... it’s for a dropper post.

I’m in the middle of botching a section of sil-bro tig. It’s just metal though, it puts up a good fight, but in the end it’ll do what I want.

 

[O’Curren Metal Farm]

I finished all the welding today. The only way- all the way.




Great care was taken to shape the brake stay just right.

 

[O’Curren Metal Farm]

Big shout out to Rev106. It’s because of him and his ridiculous Coaster Brake Challenge event that I built either of these bikes. Kinda a cop-out on this build in general just because I’m mostly replacing a frame on an existing bike. But it’ll change a lot. And as you can see, the frame was about as “from-scratch” as I can manage. (I’m not melting down my own ore and drawing it into tubes) I let the metal speak, and listened and formed it as it is now....

Anyhow here’s the other hack job I’m swapping on

 

[RustyGold]

I'm not usually into the asymmetrical look...but, you have nailed a very tasteful incarnation

WOW! Welcome to RRB and BO13
Incredibly beautiful work!!!!
Definitely out of the box thinking with the criss cross tube flowing into the seat stays.

Gratuitous shot of my drop outs. And the opener magnet that took some time to carve into place.

 

[O’Curren Metal Farm]

The other part is parts. Some builds are simply finding the right parts for a frame, now I’m up to that point. And running out of time and budget. Snag some parts off some other bikes in the pile and get going
And then they stripped!

 

[OddJob]

Nice work on the stripping! Remember, you can always directly upload your pics to this site by clicking the 'Upload a File' button below your post, select photo from phone or computer, then click 'Full Image'. That way, when we click on your photo in the post, we get to see a 'blown up' image of your super cool details!

RaT oN~!

 

[O’Curren Metal Farm]

Oh yeah? Maybe I did it wrong... let me try again...

 

[O’Curren Metal Farm]

But it flipped it upside down. This taping was stupid but I guess the result is ok.

 

[O’Curren Metal Farm]

... Anyway I was out of the office for week. But I got to jam with Bob Marley and helped decide what to do for custom paint. Still waiting on shipping some small parts so good time to do it. I guess I forgot to take a pic of my head badge. Maybe later.
