Now for my old build:

What a great idea for a suspended rear!! Love leaf springs, how much do they actually "give"?

Here is one I built 3 or 4 years ago.... Used pretty much all the parts from a $40 OCC bike to build it....

Hey Everybody,
I'm posting a few pics for gcrank1. We've been discussing his build off line for a bit and he got some cool pics today!
Pretty cool bike, I have to say. He'll add some comments. Here goes:

I was confused for a bit wondering why would he put the crank on backwards, then the second photo clears it up. Cool downhill racer!!!!

[yoothgeye]

Wow, sweet hill, I wanna play!

I just noticed the RRB shirt and the resemblance. Now you need an photo of you going down the hill mimicking the image on the shirt!!!!

Thanx MC!
Im a 59 yr. old grampa of 3,"goin' for the brass ring"........
My oldest Grandson gave me the ratty OCC (Ive mentioned it before), and after some fits & starts it all of a sudden took form. Its about a $50 special as of now, and today was the first shakedown run on our 'small' hill we call 'The Wall' (because pedaling from the downhill side on the flats, thats what it looks and feels like!). You OCC guys can see what is still used and whats changed. I had NO experience with one before, but this is a hoot!

Somehow I forgot about last years RRBBO6 Trophy

I could use my latest chopped off OCC rear end and rear wheel tire for my sidecar wheel and add a hand coaster brake for the passenger for quick right turns...

[kingfish254]

Haven't seen many OCC parts in the BO7 builds yet, but I am sure there will be some to add here before it is over.

I'm using a front wheel in mine.

I know it's not the most original bike out there... But it's still fun to ride.

The only OCC parts I used on this project was the handle bars.
But they have the right look, and they were just laying around the garage anyway : )
