almost forgot i kinda sorta set myself on fire while cutting out a plate. Saw some smoke then poof big fire. No harm done other than the death of my beloved shirt.

Put a patch over that.

The bike gods always appreciate the sacrificial shirt or two. Looking awesome so far, can't wait to see where it goes in the end, I think so far, it's well worth the shirt.

one thing i think was passed over was the rear wheel. You will notice its two rims welded together. Back when i did it you couldnt really get wide rims. I saw some other guys doing this and did a pair but never used them. And yes it uses two tubes.

the issue with this is you end up with one set of holes open in the rims. Somethings gotta go in.

I've been thinking of trying two 27 1/4" rims on a 72 spoke hub. Spoke length calculations would be a pain. But it would be pretty cool on a stretched 29er, skinny tire dually. I'm interested in seeing yours mounted.

You need to sew in a Spitfire skateboard patch behind that hole.

Either can be done. Ive seen dual 2.125 tires used but im using a single 24x3 fattio. Over the center spine i will run something to protect the dual tubes

I did a weird double rim to one hub build a while back, ran some Gorilla tape over the join inside to protect the two tubes and just fitted one 2.125 tire, worked really well! Love the spikes!
Yep thats my plan other than using a bigger tire
