***QuickSilver- Stick a fork in it!***

Re: ***QuickSilver Road Testing***

I absolutely love what you did with the bike but I think it needs a name change something like 32 degrees since your bike has a kind of winter feel to it with the metal flake silver and snowflake sprocket as for that one thing it still needs if you can fabricate a set of fender skirts and put a racing number something like the rear of the vintage indycars in this picture or you could use a sponsor logo instead

Really cool build, it's neat when somebody does something different with that style of frame. I feel ya on the bars though, maybe some drop way down race bars?

Harry the Pin Striper came by the house tonight and worked his magic to give the bike the finishing touch it needed.

Finished pics coming this weekend!

I wish I had the skills! Harry is only 22 but his work is that of an artist well beyond his years.

I am glad I am not the only one who sees the beauty in simplicity. I am hoping to get up early tomorrow before the temp outside rivals the surface of the sun to ride it a bit and get some finished pics.

 

[udallcustombikes]

Took the bike out for a spin after dinner to snap a few of my finished pics as the sun was setting. I will find some good backdrops for more pics in the full sun to showcase the metallic silver paint tomorrow.

QuickSilver at sunset

Everything on the bike came from my stash of parts, nothing extra was purchased except the pin stripes.
1934 Hawthorne "snowflake" sprocket and crank with reproduction Torrington #10 pedals

A bike bell, to keep the gremlins from sabotaging the bike, is hung near the Musselman rear hub.

The Musselman has a bit more character than most hubs.

The Brooks B67 was a gift from my dear wife.

Except the headlight which is a little too big for my taste your bike is really nice. Colors, stance,... I love it!!!

 

[kingfish254]

I love the big boy headlight on this beauty!!!
Great build!!
Congrats!
