I finally done with my Felt Red Baron. It runs good, and here are some pictures. Now it needs to warm up, so I can ride for more than 20 minutes and then have to thaw out.

I certainly agree with the positive feedback you're getting here. The one suggestion I would make is to consider a front brake. It looks like you are counting on the rear coaster to do all of the work.
 
There have been a few of us that have had the Felt wheel rebuilt with the Sturmey-Archer drum hub. It's a plug and play with Felt flanged hub. The Abraham Linkage looks great on there too by the way. It looks like you didn't skimp anywhere on the build. I see KW and SBP too. Nice.
 
I dig the apes too. To me, apes don't look good on every bike, but i think they are a great compliment to the Red Baron.
 
I see nothing but QUALITY here! Well done sir! Nice parts everywhere. Love the chaintensioner choice. PS: I agree totally on the front brake coments. You dont want to find youself in a situation where you wish everthing you have for more brakes.
 
I concur with all of the positive input Gokart. You did good. It's a real eye catcher and the work and attention to detail is outstanding.
Thanks for sharing with us.

Another very nice Felt tank frame. Good job.

Harold b's advise is an easy way to get a front brake. The 70mm drum is the same exact size as your front hub.
 
I'm not a fan of the handle bars, buts that's just my opinion lol. Overall it looks like a sweet ride. Very neo retro looking! I give it 4 out of 5 wheelies! .wee..wee..wee..wee.
