Wooden bicycle. longgg project

[Alienfac3]

The orders from headquarters:

DON'T PAINT THE FRAME!!!

Gonna make it pink and green flames naa just messing. U will see eventually

 

[Alienfac3]

ITS ALIVE.

now i need to get something so the chain wont keep rubbing on the wood >.< i tried some bearings but i need something softer so it doesnt sound so bad.

Since it has a break i figured it would be better to get a proper bold so had my bro weld a piece on it.

 

[Alienfac3]

didnt want it to be grinding against the wood the whole time so added these. hope they do there job a bit xD

 

[Alienfac3]

decided to try to make a ledstrip in the rear for the rear lighting since i couldnt think of a nice lamp design. just a test

strips of teflon would work well too, but will wear down eventually...

so been working on a table instead of the bicycle lately so a bit slow. and motivation isnt great atm.
but got a test from the paint. it will be a little more orange. pictures taken with flash since it was a bit to dark to see properly.
