I've got to finish my nephew's MTB first, a customer refurbish, plus I have two other builds planned before early June before I really start on the build-off bike. Now that I say, I better get my butt in gear. Maybe the Roadmaster I've been tinkering with lately will have to wait a while...

Here are the rules from last year.
viewtopic.php?f=55&t=39622

More than likely they will be the same. Start date for the build is May 1 and deadline is August 1.

Then the winning votes for me will be cast in the days following.

If it turns out to be an "anything goes" build, then I'm not starting with a bike or even some tubing. I'm building the entire thing up from weld.*

If it happens to be an anything goes build I'm sticking with the original plan, though a much fatter rear tire may come into play, much fatter than the one you're already thinking about too.

And I will be mining for my own iron ore to start the build.*











*That's also a lie.

It's alright kids, grandpa still thinks he's in his right mind, let's just entertain him until it's time to go home. :wink:

If it happens to be an anything goes build I will be genetically altering a fast growing bamboo to grow in 3 months and build the entire bike in the last 6 hours before the deadline.*
