So some of you may remember a build Started by LTJ called Blackjack,
http://www.ratrodbikes.com/forum/in...bike-build-new-owner-new-progress-soon.84272/
Afew months back when I was first getting into custom bikes Luke kindly donated me his Black project to finish up on. So I kindly accepted his offer and here it is back for round 2!
Here it is when I picked it up from Luke's place, Pretty much all there minus afew "minor" thinks like brake mounts and derailleur
It sat next to my shed for a while because of medical reasons but then one I was better I slowly started getting into it.
First with the bottom bracket (crank) Luke already widened it just needed some minor tweaking
With that done onto the Calipers
because of the disc size I could not mount them in the usual spot so I had to go with this.
this is why I couldnt go behind the fork leg
I had to make up a "small" mount for the rear
welded on the derailleur mount then realized the thread was junk in it so have to replace it tomorrow
but thats how it sits right now and it coming along quite nicely so far!
Thanks again to Luke
