That looks good.
Depends on the purpose of the bike.
Show or go. Mines being built to ride. And a 3" wide tire would just slow this old guy down.
But I have looked at them a time or two.
 
I had high hopes of maybe taking a test spin today. Nope our AC unit broke down. So we went out junk shopping.

I love watching stuff on dead formats :)

Goodwill had everything half off today

Made it out for a test spin. I need to shim the bars. The seat post is a little too short for riding. I still need to clean the front rim and put the new tire on. It’s sweet ride and shifted nicely. I need to fix the Kickstand the first gust of wind and it fell over [emoji2373]

Looking good. Always great to see build off bikes out being ridden.
 
I had time today so I put my new front tire on. Double checked 3/4 of everything and went for a ride. Of course I forgot to tighten my shifter. Being stuck in second gear isn’t bad. Bike is fun to ride. I’ll have to get a longer seat post.

Longer seat post? Wow. The seat looks like it's as high as my belly button as it is!

Really cool bike though.
