Here I go again. Been plotting this one for a while. Starting with a Phantom Bikes frame and fairing I've had for over a year. 49cc HS and I HOPE a KC long shaft shifter through a Sturmey Archer 3 speed with a drum brakes at both ends. Have a Husky wheel set and the 3 speed is being laced in now. I wanted a rivet'd look so; ummm. I got some rivets. 
At Granger. Aluminum and easy to work and as the frame is aluminum their wont be any weirdness of diferent metal reactions. I cut the heads off em with side cutters and finished them using a Dremel cutoff wheel and hemostats to hold them. Fiddly and tedious work. J B Welded them on. 2 different sizes for variety. After curing I took a Dremel and a 80 grit flapper wheel to remove excess epoxy. I have the Phantom version of the Monarch fork, and the old single Phantom exhaust that used to be on my Felt Twin build. So I'm almost set. The frame goes off to powder coat tomorrow. I'm hoping they can do the camo like you see on the plane. More updates as progress is made. Pics in a few min.
