Super clean build, I love the vibe this bike has. Great job!

This bike is absolutely gorgeous. I'm proud to have made a small contribution to the build. Congratulations!

Third chain guard gets my vote.

Could anyone post up some pics showing this on their bikes? I would love to see a spacer setup that is subtle and/or doesn't look too out of place on an old crusty frame.

I agree. I am not a welder myself, but I've learned and seen enough to tell good from bad. The weld beads look blobby and inconsistent. He took off too much material with the grinder, probably trying to clean up the blobs. I think the trait that sets apart the best in the industry, besides...

I know who your friend is! Sweet modification. Post some pics once it's mounted to a bike, I'd love to see the finished product.

Awesome rides, all around.

Wow, those wheels cleaned up beautifully! Can't wait to see this one come together. How did you clean them up?

Whoa, that Monark is amazing! The beehive belongs on it.

I remember that frame in the classified section. Great work! What a transformation.

Neat frame! I really like the clean & simple look of the narrow aluminum fender on the back. Perhaps less is more with this bike.

Wow, how did you clean the frame?

Looking really good. That light fits the bike like a glove. I dig the vintage vibe, but if it were my bike I'd be tempted to try out some low profile handlebar grips, or even tape wrapping the bars. That's just my 2 cents, though.

Looks like it's coming along nicely. If the steering is tight, you probably need to loosen the top bearing race of the headset.

I like where this is headed. What size are those Thickslicks?
