Maybe we should add the rule that you can only change bikes once in the build off. :lol:
It might not be a bad idea. I know, for me anyways, that it's hard to keep up with who's building what. Then people start changing names and I get lost for a few minutes. Then they change bikes and here's Little Chainy scratching his head and wondering what just happened. :roll:
Everyone gets excited over the build offs, and they should! But they also need to get a basic idea of where they're going with the build before even starting it. They should also make sure the frame is acceptable for their direction of rattiness. However things do come up along the way that may change the direction of build and that's fine, but I would like to see their creativeness do the work and not a Frame change.
MY "2fer" project was chosen because, for me, it made a good challenge, I have no means of welding aluminum, it's got a frame that doesn't easily walk on the side of style and it's a two seater so alot of things have to be done for rider comfort of two people. In my mind this bike has changed at least twenty times, but the parts and fabricating that I have done are in a direction that I'll be happy with.
I think that a one time frame change is o.k. but only one. And as for the name changes please add A.K.A. My brain hurts enuff as it is!
You guys and gals are doing some fantastic stuff! So keep the wrenches wrenching, the grinders grinding and the paint .... just don't smell the fumes tooo often!
