Can you give us a rundown on the rims you are using and what you started with as far as frame bottom bracket etc.??? Looks kinda like a Worksman front wheel...
Maybe one of the reasons it looks like one of Pat's bikes is because i buy some parts from him. He does some good quality stuff that i dont have the machinery for. For example:
1) The Handle Bars I bought from him
2) The bottom crank axle and pedal sprocket
Everything else is pretty much me or parts around.
1) The wheels are just 2" steel wheels 36spokes the spokes im using are 12g, same in the back
2) The frame is what is left out of a female 1967 Schwinn 26" bike, I used the neck and from the seat post back but with lots of customization and hardened structurally, the rest is made by me i mean the bottom tube the backbone etc.
3) The tank is 100% made by me
4) Seat is 100% made by me
5) cables are all made by me (yes i bought the roll of cable and do the whole thing myself)
Now things that i didnt do are:
Well like I mentioned from Pat (Worksman)

I promise I will get more pictures!!
By the way guys i am capable of making masking stickers or stickers. So if in need of a brand masking sticker let me know.
What does this i mean?
If you want to paint for example the word indian to your bike, or norton, or triumph etc etc,, it is pretty hard doing it by hand, and stickers well they fade, come off and are just Lame!!
BUT.... i managed to buy masking vinyl and a plotter, therefore i can cut the word or logo ect in the masking vinyl.
So you first prime the part, Tank ect,
Then paint the color you want the logo or letters to be in the general area of the logo
Next step wait till paint is a little dry , throw 1 hand of clear coat over it and let it dry, after it is dry
Put the masking logo or word on top of it, then paint the tank willingly
let dry
When paint is dry, remove the sticker(mask)
Clearcoat the part completely and polish (wouala!!!) the logo is painted on the tank.
I will be posting a tutorial on You tube soon.
Price is 30cents per square inch, with a minimum of $5 purchase,,,so anything smaller than 5 square inches , well yes is $5,,,,there is a lot to do before you can cut. But if interested i just need the logo and the dimensions. if interested send me a message.
