Will them bars flip sides if you took them apart? I think bowing down from the middle would flow better... Still cool bars either way...

I have never seen bars like that before. I need!! Very cool.

cool find! did not know those even existed!!
Yeah these bars were popular in the early 1900's. There were several manufactures but Kelly was the Cadillac of adjustable bars.


I've never been able to get a pair of those Kelly's. I had to make my own for my Racycle.

I'm fortunate to have a few Racycles myself, all with Kelly bars. I think I shared some pics of them last year in my Remix build thread?

You might have. Very cool. Here's the pair I made. They really do adjust.

Progress on Enigma has been slow...I spent yesterday working on my other projects; a 1916 Indian and a 1913 Flying Merkel.
Sweet!! I have plans to build myself a Flying Merkel too. I love them. Very cool.

Today was a good day...I began making the tank for the frame. I saw this done on my first build off - RRBBO7. I remembered the builder using heat to bend the PVC pipe.


Not bad for my first attempt.
looks good...

Funny story I did this by accident once to a sewer pipe on a mobile home I owned at one time. Was trying to thaw the pipe but almost made it worse... ok back to bikes again.

What will you do to each end of the pipe to finish it off?
