I'm off work Monday and Tuesday this week so all paint work should be done. Rims are at the lbs getting trued up and then assembly will commence. Assuming everything goes back together ok i should have a roller later this week.. All parts are in house somewhere. Got one more little thing up my sleeve that should really make it pop. Stay tuned for more.
Man, you already got it so poppin' that everyone missed the crank flip. Any more pop and it might explode!
We were waiting to see if he could build it
Amazing ideas. I really like the idea of covering up the truss rods. How did you finish up/fixed the ends of the hoses?
The plan was to use some shrink wrap but the truss rod ends were to big to slip the wrap over. I cut the brass wrap a little shorter and wrapped ends with electrical tape. Masked the sleeve off and sprayed with flat orange and clear. The sleeve fits tight so this should work good. These wraps come in stainless, brass and multiple colors and sizes.
Thanks Kingfish. I saw that braid used on a motorcycle at a car show a while back and wanted to use it somewhere on my build. I went back and checked out Salthammer build. That looks great on those bars.
Thanks man. I started this build with the idea of a bare steel frame with a little color thrown in. Six rattle cans later here i am. One little idea leads to another. I have one more piece of bling to add then i will ride the wheels off it.
So easy to work with and it comes in brass, stainless, copper and a variety of colors and diameters. First saw it used by motorcyle builders.
