Motobecane Build

[Derek11]

Started off with a stock Motobecane cruiser I got off craigslist for 20 bucks.

Built a faux gas tank.

Made a number plate which will house a wooden filler.

Built some forks the arms were off an previous bike.

Added a 1/2 gusset for strength and to match the rear arms.

Cut the seat post area off filled the rear gussets on the arms.

Cut some bars up still undecided if I will keep these.

You can see in this picture I heated the crank arms and put a bend to them for a little more pedal clearance.

Still adding more things as I go eventually I will paint it, right now I'm just having fun riding it and getting weird looks haha

 

[Motopecane]

this thing is awesome I love the forks! You should have posted it in the builds though.

 

[Derek11]

Can someone move this to the build section?
