Thanks for the info...kinda what I figured. Got pics?

Slowly collecting parts for an INB frame I bought from Chuck...and am wondering whats the biggest tire anyone has put on a Worksman. Seems like the Fat Franks are the way to go. Any other choices out there?

Looks good! Just got the same frame from Chuck. Give us some details...cranks? seat post? wheels?

Lovin that stance..what frame is that?

3 speeds too!? Nice score.

Is this anyone on here's bike? Been seeing this on craigs for a bit now...wishing price would go down.

@ g-ratter, do you mean resin, followed by three layers of cloth then resin over? more updates...so I got impatient, or maybe it was the fumes, and while they were drying I hit them (a little)with the heat gun. This is after cutting off the excess with a dremel...looks like the foam started...

Forgot to mention I used bondo brand resin/cloth and followed the directions for the hardener/resin mix. Working time was about ten minutes just like the instructions say. I used a small paintbrush to lay the resin on and work the cloth into the corners. Have a few of those handy 'cause if...

Been wanting a tank for my daily rider and wanted to try fiberglass. I've never worked with fiberglass before so I did some research and this is how I'm doing it. First pics of my rider... Found sheets of "hobby foam" at home depot and traced an outline of the tank shapes Cut them out with...

I've recently started carving a tank from a thick piece of insulation. I was hoping to make a "mold" out of it and fiberglass over it. After some research, (youtube has a bunch of info), I found out the fiberglass will melt the foam insulation. I've never worked with fiberglass before and am...

This is looking good! Waiting to see more updates on the tank...as I've slowly been carving a tank out of insulation myself.

My Spyder's wheels are the same as yours...rear is normal 24" tire. Front is that odd sized 24"?

24" Sears Spyder single speed. Has wrong bars, seat and in this pic missing rear hub. Can any of you guys date these?

That came out REALLY nice! I bought two of those OCC's at a yard sale for my kids...they're about to outgrow them. So I'll be stripping them for parts...what did you have to do to get the forks to fit? I looked at them and there is some type of clamp that holds the top piece to the neck piece...?
