Re: SPEED RACER (ROAD it around the block to day!!!!!!!!)
thanks up till now it a full on Rat build. every thing but frunt tire and grips wear saved /snaged out of some ones trash can to build this cool ride!
but looks like I got to buy a new shifter. was going to use a old stick shift. but I lean so far over. well I might hit it + it would take away from the low arow look this bike has.

Re: SPEED RACER (ROAD it around the block to day!!!!!!!!)
Yeah, low and mean!
Would like to see you riding it. Won't be easy I guess. Did you get any reactions from people passing by?
The bike turned out very cool. Makes me take a second look at all the 20"ers I'l pass by from now on...
I'm not too sure of the fenders though.... Don't think I like em on this bike, but overall this is one sweet build!

Liking what you're doing with this. I'm not usually a fan of lowriders but this is proper ratty (please keep the cable ties holding the fenders in place). It's great to see the BMX as a basis. Looking forward to seeing more.

Re: SPEED RACER (ride video uploaded of this bike!!!!!!!!)
got more work done on it.
nicer looking air valve stem caps they match the grips.
got the 3speed working grate drilled the chain gard mount to be my shifter cable stop.
put on a flag for safety because the bike is so low.I do not want to be a bug on a car grill! but keeped it RAT ROD looking.

Re: SPEED RACER (all most finished!!!!!!!!)
why do we have to have such long legs? it would be so much easier to pedal if they were only half as long!slow rider said:

Love it! The grips are the only thing bugging me. To shiny. How about getting some black cloth tape and wrapping them? Would keep the cool shape but add more of a rat texture.
