I like the chainguard, if you don't use one, you have the gap between the chain stay and the bottom of the skirt, just doesn't look right, could extend the skirt down to the stay though, that could work...

Chain guard but not that one...
Have you weathered with chalk before?

Carl.

I could use this aluminum chain guard that I still have. Here is a pick when it was on the cherry Silver King that I got in trade for Firewing a few years back.

And I still have this short French aluminum guard that I got from irzouts in Paris.

Just send me the zeph chainguard, problem solved.

Did a lot of flipping back and forth with photos and thinking hard on how I want this build to look.
As much as I love the skirt guard with the fender, I'm pulling them off.
- I'm really not feeling it without a guard
- I'm not into marrying either of the high end guards to make the guard and skirts blend well and I really don't think the ridges or the holes of the two guards are right for the skirts
- I really think it takes away from the Moon disc


I really like how clean the fenders look with the frame and the Moon discs here.

And I also think the zep guard balances out the racktank well with this layout from an earlier pics

Looks good to me, told you so a while back.

I think I agree I like the tripped duck fender & chain guard together & of course the moons . But what about the truss rods I hope to see them on there also [emoji1305]

I too like this last set, although...
I'd like to see the Zep guard with the silver fenders.
Even though I really like the triple duck.

Carl.

Those silver fenders are the triple ducktail fenders. I just haven't painted the smaller ducktail pieces yet.

Will this bike have the 3 piece conversation crank ?

Sorry, the light trumped the truss rods.

I think I am gonna go with the Monark dogleg instead of the 3 piece "conversation"

I'm going to have to agree with the guitar man!
I do LOVE the triple duck but it seems more suited for another build. The cool long curves of the silver fenders just seem to flow more with a racer look - In my opinion :)

Well, it is a KILLER ride in all aspects... single duck , triple duck or quadzoople duck!

Your new light design won't work with the truss rods? Love the truss rods, & suggest keeping them somehow. Lots of mockups KF:thumbsup:. When comparing the flowcycle & std SK frame, I realize how differently they carry the other parts. It really is interesting to see how you are moving through it. I do like the look of the rack-tank on the flowcycle frame better, and with the new SK frame, it seems that "something" tubular and long could be placed between the RackTank and the top tube that would fill the empty space a bit better? Keep going KF!
