Maybe before you make another seat you should attach the wheels so you get a better size reference.

Yeah I was thinking that I'm still waiting on my bearings so all I can do is just sit the frame inside the wheels I'll do that later so we can all have a look

Right ... Now ...
I need help.
I don't want to paint my back done but I don't want to rust look it
I was thinking along the lines of covering it in something.
Let me know what you guys think

I was thinking something like old rope

This is how my finished frame will sit in the wheels.

There's no bearings so it's just sitting in there it will be about one inch higher and wen I put the tyres on ot will be about 3 inch higher. It's ok right now it's sitting on the floor so 4 inches is still low as f***. Lol.
This is what I'm thinking about the rope wrapped back done.

I think thinner rope would work better to do that...

Yeah so do I.
That was the only rope I had at hand I was thinking about doing it with 5 mm black rope

Good new. Today my mum got something in the post for me .....

I know what that is. Well a bit back I ordered a go kart seat and they didn't send me one and sed they was out if stock so I thought that was the end of that. So I started my bomber seat. They sent the money back to my mum throw ebay. (I don't have ebay that's why my mums doing it for me lol ). And now I got a seat in the post. I've got to wait till later on tonight so she can come and drop it to my house

Love this so far mate, what about wrapping in the carbon fibre wrap used on cars?

Great score on the seat too!

Cheers,

Hadn't looked at your build thread for a while. All taking shape now. Looking good. I would still be tempted to use exhaustvwrap on the frame if you want hot rod looks

Thanks Dr T.
That would look good I raped my car roof in red Carbon

I'm still going for the rat look so I've seen a strap in b&q that's flat and 20 mm wide. And it's copper colour it looks really good that I'm going to rap my frame in.

Seats bigger then I thought and there's a lot of holes in it so I've got to filler that and there's a small crack in the side. Easy fix
