STRICK 9

[Jalopy Jim]

This is a Worksman frame I got from Gaskill. I think it will do nicely for this build.
I've decided to go with some red Grand Tycoon tires from Smoopy.
The frame has now been sanded and in primer. So far so good.

Can't wait to see your build, good luck.

Great frame, and I was considering those tires, either for this build (ruled out) or another bike, what width rims will you be mounting them on? Can't wait to see them. The price is in my range.

I've said it before and I will say it again:
Good luck and have fun building!

That frame and those tires is a very nice start.

I beat you.

 

[Jalopy Jim]

The tires are 26x2.125 so they should work on standard cruiser rims.

yah, I know... It's the fumes. THE FUMES!!!

@ Jalopy Jim
What are your plans for this build, other than the red tires..? A particular style? Keep the primer as a final coat, are you gonna paint it a different color?

 

[Jalopy Jim]

I'm going the board racer look. I'm still collecting parts so I just have to see what I can dig out of the dumpster. I believe for the
color I'll go the Henry Ford route, any color as long as it's black.

 

[blackdiamond]

Yes! A worksman in the build-off!

I just have to comment on the bike's name.....LOVE IT!

P.S. I dig Worksmans too, mine will be a raw metal build.....someday.

Cheers,

+1 on the name,should be a cool build.

 

[Jalopy Jim]

I cut the chainguard and painted the frame today. After a few days cure time i can start some fun.

I also mounted my wheels. I'm happy with the look.

 

[Jalopy Jim]

I decided on this springer as the fork to use.

I mounted the forks for a test fit.

Looking good man, I love how tough the Worksman frames are. I ride my INB every day at work- saves my back and my knees from carrying heavy tools and stuff, and makes for faster repairs when I have to run back to the shop for something.

It also likes to sneak into the background of my buildoff pics...

Good luck, can't wait to see this one on the road!

Thank you, your frame is looking sweet

 

[Gdcast]

Awesome!!!

 

[Jalopy Jim]

Sure, I'll see you Friday. Scooby's looking good.

 

[Jalopy Jim]

I mounted up the tires to see where it's going. I like the rake so far.

 

[slow rider]

heck ya killer stance looks awsome!

 

[Gdcast]

Keeps getting better!

 

[2dawgs]

Yeah Baby, Scooby is looking fine. Like the tire color and can't wait to seem them matched up with the Econo-Line Green frame color.
