Nice bike stand way to go.................ya know..........if you cut the center out of that donut you could have had the beginnings of a chopper wheel.............If I get you the wheel off a police car would you trade? :shock:
looks good but i have a possible safety related question...
the solid bar for the front........is that just (im guessing on the width) 1/2" mild? if so id temper it....i made some trusses for a springer with that and before i tempered them i bent the heck out of them(im about 170#'s)
It's 5/8" I built one for my other bike more traditional type. and haven't had any problems.There is a pic in my intro. I might temper it now that you brought it up.
Thanks
im guessing the springer on the black bike? looks good :mrgreen:
5/8" probably wont fold but id still temper it(or at least lean on it really hard before riding to be sure).....
Got springer done. seems pretty sturdy. And I did put new brackets on bottom of main legs so it wouldn't slide out. Thanks Uncle Stretch ( I cant believe I did that.)
Now to work on a seat post to move my seat back. I have this cool seat I got on a $5 bike this summer.
Haven't posted for awhile. spent last week stripping paint and sanding I hate that part. And went and picked up some other bikes. Got it in primer and took it to a buddy's to spray. Now we're waiting on dry weather.
