Wow! It is so hard to chose a prize from an imaginary prize bin as the possibilities are unlimited. But after much careful thought and since this is a space themed build off, I will take the star trek replicator. I can't wait to get it so I can start replicating imaginary bike parts.

Star trek replicator? sounds interesting. What would happen if I put a picture of Selma Hayek in there? 8)

:? oh...never mind... :(
I also have a cover of the song 'Eep-opp-ork-ah-ah' by "The Violent Femmes' on a cd called 'Saturday Morning-cartoons greatest hits' . It also has 'The Ramones' doing 'Spiderman', 'The Reverend Horton Heat' covering the 'Jonny Quest' theme and 'The Butthole Surfers' doing 'Underdog'. and many more... Isn't it amazing the way I can stay totally focused on discussing the project bike and not veer of coarse. It's a gift. :P

I stripped the paint myself. Industrial strength 'Zip Strip'. Good stuff. I plan on running a white glitter banana seat Kicked back with one of my world renowned 'Zeat Posts'. :roll:
Like this one.

* The sissy bar will parallel with the seat tube. I changed my mind on the color, I'll be using 'Cosmic Copper' and 'Light Year White'. It'll roll on 26x1-3/8 tires. I think a space bike would have thin wheels.

Thanks. The pigment is made from dust gathered from the surface of Mars. The color from Saturn is really nice also but the stuff from Uranus is crap. :roll: :lol:

Are you sure the pigment is from Mars?........It MIGHT be from Uranus, it seems to Klingon very well!

:lol: :lol: :lol: It just wouldn't be a proper 'Space Bike Build' without at least one 'Klingons on Uranus' bit of humor, now would it? :D I hope this paint job has a better Klingon factor than the last bike I did. It was very humid in my garage the only day I had available to paint. I could scrape it off with my thumbnail.

Baby! Baby! I have decided to change the craft's name to JET SCREAMER!
Did a bit more paint work today. I added the silver. I still have to pin stripe it between colors. I'm thinking black or white. leaning towards black. I also have the chaingaurd sand blasted and ready for paint.
