The "discs" are (in my theory) heat dissipators for the roller brakes

:13: would like to hear the story on this, how you found it, previous owners history, if any, your plans...etc

Thanks!:)

Thank you.I got infected with these lines and angles a long time ago. A lot of obsessive, but not perfect work has been done. Yup, you nailed it! Apollo Mixte. It was the closest I could find to the angles I was looking for at the time. I have a few progress pics from '94-'98. Hope you are able...

Yes it is. 13-14 years ago. That rig requires a skillset that needs to be kept up.

My Spoiler. Kustom rockers, dual disc front brake,Harley risers with a sectioned clamp, laid back seat post, Brooks seat, Kustom sissy bar, old school trident, repop rack, 3spd wide Sturmey, old school shifter, larger than stock rear disc rotor. Hope y'all dig it.

Thanks guys. More to come. Been building for 24 years now, and have been waiting for a easier way to post pics on here.

Part of the update a few years ago was the led conversion of the old school rectangular headlights. Red and blue bulbs,and painted the inner chrome reflective shield with purple anodizing rattle can, and voila! Was told purple led's were nonexistent (to me at least) at the time.

Taken in '01-'02

I built this between '94-'98. Updated a few years ago.

There, that's better.

Thank you Rat Rod for making this pic upload process MUCH easier. Hope to see many more member pics now.

Lack of a metallurgical education aside, I think the memory would be pretty lengthy in something that thick. If that concerned though, zip ties are cheap. Love the build. Cheers.

you guys are hilarious!...Luke, love your creativity and imagination!

A holy grail bike amongst muscle bike collectors in that colour. I believe the serial # may tell you if it left the factory in black. It appears you are already well versed in this genre, however, so apologies if I'm saying things you already know. Awesome rides!

oops...just saw it is still on this page, towards the bottom.

I started a similar/exact thread a week or 2 ago. You can probably find it on the second page. WalMart was selling bicycles of this advertised wheel size last year, with limited? success. I would imagine because of the apprehension to purchase something out of the box. I received some good help...

Thanks again for the boost in the right direction. After a bit of research, it appears that these wheels are of the 48h/spoke variety. I was hoping to do a radial lacing to the more common 36h, for a better choice of hubs. Discussions on a couple forums show a appreciable overall diameter...

Kool, thank you very much, I really appreciate the help. :) I will let you know how I make out. Cheers.
