Science Step Through

I'm calling this done. I may try to route the wiring in a different way in the future, but for now, it's hidden a bit by the flat black frame, which I feel also helps the vintage sheet metal parts to pop.

The wife is also enjoying the electric kit to help with hills and so forth.

Very nicely designed frame. I like it very much, although i wouldn't add that ramp in the back. Instead, i would use the rear part of the frame. Propably weld a piece of metal on it or add a bit of wood. It looks fantastic!

There is indeed a thin plate of steel on the frame. That's what the batteries are sitting on. The vintage rack is there in case my wife wants to strap something else on the bike.

Thanks for the compliments!

dude, i love your frame style, especially your rear triangles. they make me want to build some frames myself.

Deven, man, I love your mix of custom-from-scratch, vintage, and modern. This thing is like a piece of art! I love it! I have four step-throughs in the garage right now but this one is just about the first one I like! Nicely job.

All of you "from scratchers" are making me want to take a welding class!

Very well done build from both the design aspect and the build.

Since I'm building my wife a new electric bike frame, I removed the batteries and electronics from this bike, and just made it her regular bike. An odd combo of vintage parts on a new frame.
