This is a thread about updates to all my current/future bicycles. For instance, I just raised the headlights on my bike 1” and I think they look much better.
Also I finally got the Tokyo bell screwed onto the bike. It had a broken clamp, and the only way I could mount it and make it ring was to put it on something rubber.
I was going to change the name to The Cooked Goose, then The Baked ‘Goose, then The Half-Baked Goose. . . . And then it was suddenly all Moot.
So it is still named A Lengthy Insanity.
It could’ve been called A Lengthy Delusion, because it’s not all that long, at 79 inches, compared to other bikes around the forum.
We went from being a one bicycle household to several, just in the short time I have been on the Ratrod Bikes. It could have been worse too because I exercised some self restraint in buying of antique bicycles that I would have to hang up and look at for a long time before my wife could watch me cut them up.
Meanwhile, the Centurion Accordo is getting mocked up for a 26” mountain bike gear train from the fake Schwinn.
Yes those are the handlebars from the 16”Frozen movie tribute bike. Remember, it’s just a mockup. I don’t have a 1 inch gooseneck anywhere.
