Great looking bike! I like the white forks - maybe put white stripes across the chain guard? Bike is ridiculuos-ly cool man... I like the shifter on the earlier pics and how it flows with the frame in there... Cheers, T. :!:

DONE!! Wife and kids went shopping so I finished 'er up!
Drilled out old brackets and mounted fenders, ran a chain, and put on pedals.
Threw a few stickers on here and there. Different neck.
The gearing feels real good with the combo of the big ole Monark sprocket and
the 3 speed Nexxus. :mrgreen:
