Looking insanely sweet!!!
The only potential issue that I see is the angle of your droputs. It should be horizontal or angled down. With it angled up the weight of you and the bike is going to tend to make the wheels come out of the drops if the axle nuts ever loosen.

Love this build and look forward to seeing it purty up.

coool man, i love the look of a hand polished/sanded frame.. has unique grooves like wood or a patina kind of look

oh and that bmx frame.. Please dont tell me that 'Cheap'o' bmx frame was a GT' :shock:

 

[oleskool]

Re: this may take a while.......................................

oh alright phew.. good.. haha yeah im into bmx too
the only time i would ever chop a quality bmx frame up was if it was tewaked 'even then would be hard

i get annoyed and sad when i see people thrash a bike that i been looking for.. like GT ProPerformer! :x or a GT PFT Turned into a scrappy tall bike Gahh xc
like, dude ill give you $20 just to not do that, and $80 more if you will sell it to me.. and maybe ill just give you a junker to replace it too.. just dont be hackin that GT mann! :shock:

but oh well nothing you can do sometimes :| its just their fate..

i have a twisted/tweaked 90s machone i dont know what to do with.. i considered rebirthing it as some sort of GT chopper since its only a 90s machone and not really worth much anyway.
i just dont have a welder so i dont know what to do with this frame/fork.. :roll:

anyway looking for next update brotha..

GT vertigo.. $120 with the pacman fork cut in half

I bet he is gonna use the floor grate between the BB and rear triangle to give the BB stealthy, but cool support.
