i like a good stretch

no flexing? it dosen't need a vertical or diagonal tube? like from the seat strait down in front of the rear wheel, or diagonal to the bb?

okay as promised, here are some pics of my elgin twin bar...took awhile, but here they are,had to change forks ,because of the tire size, fat franks on 2.5' wheels, too fat for my evans-action springer fork, rode bike and rides very smooth, except that the triple three forks always seem to loosen up after a ride, yeah, i know, loctite should do, but i want to change out the forks to something that looks more old school...anyways, here she is, love the frame and bike....got some fenders to put on too...
 
I really prefer the first build of this bike because it's so unusual and vintage looking. The streetsweeper fenders and Evans Action fork look sooooo sweet and I love the red accents against the dark grey frame! The second version looks fine, but everything besides the frame has been done to death on stretches. This is just my honest opinion and in no way am I trying to put you or your amazing work down.
 
Discovered this old thread. I've seen the bike around the webs, but just found your thread.
What a sick build!!!!!!! It just looks natural! Nice work!
