My next bike

[64lowrider]

The red bmx I've been riding to school was starting to fall apart, etc, so I thought man I gotta build a rat bike I can ride to school!

I was starting to collect up quite a few old bikes that were just itching to be chopped. I had the yellow 20" bmx I found on the side of the road, a 16" bike, old 26" mtb, and of course the existing red bmx. I thought hey, I could build a bike that gets rid of all of these at once! So I decided go build one of these new long rider style bikes, this is what I have so far.

I have the front section cut (except for the top tube), all I need to do now is cut the rear triangle, prep all the joints, and get it welded. I'm going to be using stock length forks. The bottom tube is the double top tubes from the bmx

Decided to go with a 20" rear wheel, that way I already have singlespeed and a coaster brake (I'll need to replace the bamboo stick top tube wih steel though, lol!)

Thanks guys!

I'm going to start notching the tubing tonight, I might be able to get the top tube in the weekend, and if I'm lucky I might be able to get it welded sometime next week
