Because we are not allowed to comment in the actural thread for the members build off I figured I would start another thread in here to discuss ideas.

I would just like to ask Venice boy will the cranks that you intend to use not hit the floor when pedaling due to how low the bike sits?
 
Re: Members build off

The BB for the cranks will be relocated, & I'm gonna use shorty low rider cranks.
Look at the drawing that I posted.
 
Re: Members build off

I'm kinda 'in limbo' on building the bottom end of the frame until my new fork gets here.
I have to see where the final ride height is gonna be before I can build the lower end.
 
hows that bike build off going ?

in respect to the build-off thread rules , i made sure i didn,t comment in that thread .

i see there are still a few contenders in this bout . theres some nice work goin on there .
also seems there are a few drop outs . or secret suprise unveilings , i don,t know .

i,m just curious as to who is still in and who is out . or am i out to lunch and did i miss the finnally of the challenge . the last post i seen was from 2 days ago ( 20th nov ) so i assume its still on .

to those still in and building , i like what ive seen so far and i can,t wait to see the finished pictures .
 
i'm hoping to still be in it. i'm trying to make some hand-built, custom frames, forks and tanks. i'm doing most of the design work, and my brother is doing all the actual manufacturing (welding, bending, etc...) and he's got a real job, unlike me, so he doesn't have enough time.

hopefully i'll have something to show real soon, besides a box of parts...

I think Britton Bees is back to playing his 'top secret' games... I don't think we'll see anything from him until Jan 1st for his 'grand unveiling'!! :-{

I don't feel like anyone else is playing games, but I wish they would post more! It seems like John & I are the only ones who care about showing everyone what we're doing. (Jim is struggling to keep his shop open, so he has a pass...)

I've never tried building anything like this before (chopping up a frame this much with a 'in frame' gas tank), so I'm just trying to stay motivated, & keep posting pics.
