Silver King I just Finished

[g kustom kuhl]

just seen this one and what a finish! MAN that looks kool!
love the way you crammed 26" wheels in there.

Absolutely gorgeous!

Where do you guys find the white tires?

I would kill someone for such a frame........

Please don't. Especially not me. Cuz I just scored a Silver King right in my own hood, and I'd kinda like a chance to build it.

Seriously, that bike is a work of art. I'll be pleased if I can get mine 10% as amazing as yours, IB57.

WOW! Very, Very nice!

Beautiful bike! Very nicely done. I think you did a great job with the photos!

 

[Annika]

Really nice work, and great photography too!

Inverted handlebars are growing on me...

Thanks again guys for all the kind comments, I'm really pretty happy about the way it came together myself.
sworks, I can get these white tires from a local bike shop called Mr.Goodbike, I'm friends with one of the owners who's a really good guy. He always gives me a good deal, I can probably pick some up for you if your interested or I can find out who he gets them from and you can see if your local shop can get for you.
Slacker, I can't wait to see what you come up with for your Silver King.
This site has to be my favorite place on the web, you guys are the best.

Awesome. I have a 1941 X26.The fender brackets on it are different than any other bike I have (due to the fact that it had stainless steel fenders).

Did You have problems putting regular fenders on yours? I wanna kno..

hey dude, got a Q for you... please excuse the ignorance... but is that bike frame aluminum? if it is, is it coated by a clear coat or is it just raw alu?....

once again, awesome bike!!!!

 

[IB57]

Ohchusan, the frame is just bare aluminium, no clear coat.

My frame had the original screws still in it so all I did was take an Electra bobbed fender and screwed it to the frame, really simple.
