Re: bmX-RATED for ADULTS ONLY - YZ-24 MotoBike
The time has finally come to get this project started.
Things will be progressing slower than I would like because of the usual life stuff that will always pull me away. (No boring details about that.) My wife is usually quick to remind me that I always under estimate how much time it takes to finish everything that I start and I'm wondering if I'll be able to do this in the allotted time. We will see!
Today I laid out the parts that I will be starting with for a rough look. Both front and rear suspension parts are robbed from a Next mountain bike that I picked up for $20. The pedals are also from the same bike and are subject to change later on. The stem and handlebars are from a kids Schwinn that I had laying around. I Actually like the way the stem looks but I'm still looking for the right bars. The wheels will be re-laced with a SRAM Duel Drive in the rear and a Worksman drum brake hub up front that I got from ind-chuckz back in February.
Here's the SRAM components and front drum...
