"DEVIANT" link to finished build on page one :-)

Postby Lugisland on Tue May 15, 2012 9:15 pm

Hello all, your vote would be greatly appreciated!
Here is the finished build thread: viewtopic.php?f=68&t=61058

Hello all,

This is my first time entering a build off, so I wanted to do something a little different.
I found this ladies step thru Monarch at the Ann Arbor show and the price was right $5.00
Here are some pictures of the parts I might use. I've been staring at it for a couple of
weeks now, and did a little mock up. Some different wheel/tire combos, and a tank off of a
Schwinn American. Don't know if it will have fenders yet... hmmm...

I like this combo

Or maybe these...

A step beyond... :wink:

$5.00? I like it already!
I tried being serious, but it was boring.

I've seen a few flipped frame bikes (did one myself before the build off) but that frame you have makes it just right!

Just let me add though that those tires don't fit your build... I want them!!!! (been looking for full gummies for years!)

Looks like you have a single out of place whitewall Carlisle there. I'll take that off your hands. And the bike looks sweet too. :mrgreen:

Yes, I like that tire/wheel combo the best. I'm going to wash them and shoot 'em with clear.

Gonna hold onto that lightning dart tire... I've been waiting for the right build to use it along with that Gillette slick.

I have a frame like that, I've been holding on to for a flipped frame bike. I like how the curves come out.

You can be sure that I will be watching how you make everything work, especially the new BB.

Great looking so far!

I've made a little progress. I cleaned and rebuilt the hubs, and found a donor frame for the bottom bracket.
I'm not sure if I'm going to weld it on, or bolt it up. I'm also working on some bolt on rear dropouts to stretch
and lower the rear end. I'll be giving the frame an acid bath next week sometime. Happy Memorial weekend everyone!
