RRBBO7 HYPE UP THREAD!

I just noticed the little windshield on that bike. That is a pretty cool idea.

Why is there a slot in half-link chain sprockets?

Because.

And in other news, I'm still ready to go and beat all of you to a pulp, but my wife likes her orange juice without pulp, so I'll just beat you all to juice.

How many more times can I change my mind?!?!?!?!

Wait until the build off starts and you will definitely find out!!!

Well, that explains it then.

I'm having a hard time finding the right frame for the buildoff. I'm partial to twin top tubes, but I haven't seen any around lately. I might get a late start...

Just add second top tube. Maybe use a cutting disk or sawzall to split your current top tube. Done and done.

Give me about a week to get pics of the frames I'm letting go cheap to free up space. There are two twin top tube Ross frames that are in the mix. They'll be in the for sale section. One of my frames could be good luck. The first Auction Rat used a Murray frame I donated.

You're kidding right?

If you're down and confused
because you can't find the bike you want to use;
and your concentration slips away
because your favorite frame is so far away

Well, there's a rose out in your shed
all it needs is a can of Rustoleum red
and if you can't find the frame you love, honey
love the frame you're with
love the frame you're with
love the frame you're with
love the frame you're with

Don't be angry
don't be sad
Don't sit cryin' over a Schwinn you never had
There's a frame right next to you
so stop for waiting for something else to use

Because there's a rose out in your shed
all it needs is a can of Rustoleum red
and if you can't find the frame you love, honey
love the frame you're with
love the frame you're with
love the frame you're with
love the frame you're with
Do do do do do do do do
Do do do do do do do do
Do do do do do do do do
Do do do, do do do

(Instrumental break)

love the frame you're with
love the frame you're with
love the frame you're with

Turn your heartache right into joy
She's a frame and you're her builder boy
get it together, start building tonight,
all you need is a chrome headlight

Ooooo, there's a rose out in your shed
all it needs is a can of Rustoleum red
so if you can't find the frame you love, honey
love the frame you're with
love the frame you're with
love the frame you're with
love the frame you're with
Do do do do do do do do
Do do do do do do do do
Do do do do do do do do
Do do do, do do do

I just did a trade for a Hawthorne w/ twin top tubes and a single mid tube. I don't really have any definite plans for it. If it'll help you out, let me know and I'm sure we can work something out.

Nope, have you seen a single 26 inch cantilever in any of my fresh finds lol. Its just crazy you would think that would be the easiest frame to find. looked at just getting like a Cranbrook to use but I dont like how their welded, and it just wouldnt be the same

Find a Murray cantilever with the pointy dropouts, that's what I built last year in the build off, great frame. I have one at the house now that you'd be welcome to have if you were local, sorry, I don't ship large free items.

[yoothgeye]

Oh, and Peatbog, thank you for the song adaptation, I loved it, made me giggle.

[Wildcat]

I'm getting stuff together for the build off. I'm going for more than 3 votes this year! I just picked up this big sprocket (thanks to a good deal from Roadmaster) and a large sheet of copper.
