I've always wanted to build a strech cruiser, so what better time then a anything goes build. My bike started life as a gravity boot hanger, the things that people invert themselves upside down on, like a bat. (neighbors were throwing it out)

Here is a couple steps into my build.

I made some airflow handle bars out of three sets of other bars.[code][/code][IMG]http://i208.photobucket.com/albums/bb121/crissytina16/IMG_0995.jpg[/IMG]I'm running out of time for the deadline at 12am so I will let pictures speak for themselves.  Thank you for viewing my thread.[code][code][/code][/code][IMG]http://i208.photobucket.com/albums/bb121/crissytina16/IMG_1145.jpg[/IMG][code][code][/code][/code][IMG]http://i208.photobucket.com/albums/bb121/crissytina16/IMG_1162.jpg[/IMG][code][code][/code][/code][IMG]http://i208.photobucket.com/albums/bb121/crissytina16/IMG_1159.jpg[/IMG][code][code][/code][/code][IMG][IMG]http://i208.photobucket.com/albums/bb121/crissytina16/IMG_1166.jpg[/IMG]http://i208.photobucket.com/albums/bb121/crissytina16/IMG_1173.jpg[/IMG][code]

Cool ride but I think you posted it 3 hours to late for the deadline

[nickdaddy]

[chiselhead1133]

re:3 hours too late---i believe the rules state 12 midnight,where i live it was 12 am (california)

You finished in time, but it looks like you didn't post in the "finished bikes" thread before the deadline. Those bars are very cool.

Late or not it is definately an original concept. I am diggin the handlebars as well

I wanted to see the rest of the pictures so I fixed your tags a little.

Nice work. You don't see to many people making their own chain guards.

Pretty sweet. So sweet, in fact, that another good name for it might be... Tromboner.
