coolest girls bike ever!
I agree w/stretch! Muchas lower than my Purple Feida Eat'r will sit, unless I get some mad scientist inspiration from your bike + hot rod girl! :) ( I haven't really had time to work on the PFE lately, but it's still in progress!) ~Adam
 
Re: THE LADY RAT ( new pictures)

you guys doing these girls bikes are inspiring - I've parted out so many girls bikes and just threw the frames in the shed. But these low girls are insane gotta build one :D

Re: THE LADY RAT ( now painted)

not the athority. Doesn't look like a major frame modification to me.
 
Re: THE LADY RAT ( now painted)

yep, the bb is strong, it also has bubble gum stuck to it. yeah, i chewed it 50 times then stuck it on and put the bold in. holds real good. boy, that gum sure tasted good.lol. that color is very kool looking. i didn't want to paint it green, but every time i saw the color i thought ya know it would look good on this bike. i also just finnished putting on the last coat of clear. no shine to this old girl. she's all rat. i just don't know what color to do the forks yet. anyone got any ideas. the truss and rockers will be hammered black as well as the sproket and bars. any thoughts anyone? thanks.

Re: THE LADY RAT ( now painted)

the rings confuse me do tell more about them? or is that the idea a sort of camouflage to confuse the other builders as to what your really up to?
 
Re: THE LADY RAT ( now painted)

hmmm, lets see. well the story goes back to 1969 with my first chop. a 48 pan. my buddy also had one and he put lacing on his then painted it. after it dried he took it off and the bike was stunning. no one i know ever pulled that trick. so we did it to mine. i have done it to a few of my chops and still have never seen it. people have asked me about it but i would't tell. soooo i couldn't fine what i wanted so i found this trim that looked like a rope and said well i haven't done this for a long time so there it is. no tricks to confuse anyone, just something i used to like to do since i can't pin stripe. now if one of you would come here soon and put some stripes on this bad Lady i would be very happy. thats the story and i am sticking to it.
