☣☢ VerBoten ☠ϟ - Elgin Twin Evanaction Build - Big Butt Strikes Again!!

[deven_science]

Along Deven's idea of curvy, I do have these smaller curvy cross bars.
I really need to get this thing ridable before I can truly decide on the bars I want.

Ooh, I'd like to see those mocked up on there.

The cross bars are at my office, but I had to go out to the shop and see what @jasper87 's crazy idea would be like. It was fun to see, but just wouldn't fit.
While out there, I did try this silly idea. I took my Screamer butterfly bars, flipped them and laid them flat.

Almost like a butterfly steering wheel on a dragster.

Yeah, I got those covered in my build! LOL! That does look good on there though. Kinda ties in with the truss rods in some visual appealing way.

 

[deven_science]

I kind of like that! Better than the other bars I've seen so far, in any case.

Really liking the spoke grill between the top tubes!

Bikes looking great but you have more pressing decisions on your hands than me. YBJ2B!

Actually that is what the Screamer butterfly bars were meant to emulate when they designed them.

I just threw those Screamer bars on because they were the closest bars to grab at 11:30 PM.
Here are the other pics from my small shop

Too many other things to do today than work on making this a rider. But I did make time to play some more handlebar roulette.

Just not feeling the curvy cross bars. They are fairly small for cross bars.

You wanted curvy, how about these (NOT)

Possibly these basic vintage bars

Then there are the reverse Screamer bars. I did these almost as a gag last night, but I can't stop looking at them now.

Here is a video of these bars

reverse screamer bars look great!

The screamer bars fit the bike well,but for some reason looking at it from the front I can only think about my childhood hero mighty mouse....But in all honesty I really like those bars on this bike.

 

[kingfish254]

I still haven't settled on any bars yet, but I am having fun playing around with them.
I have so much work left on this build, I need to stop playing around though!!!!!
Probably gonna set the handlebar question aside and concentrate on building a bike.

 

[Fv2]

I hear ya there,mine is a simple build but I'm behind...so to quote Jake....git ta building.

The screamer bars do look good some of the best ideas come to you at odd hours

This one is the money shot! Like the combo, the chain ring fits the build...

For the second night in a row, NorCal RRBers have put thoughts in my head and sent me out to my shop. Last night it was @deven_science . Tonight it was @karfer67 . Trying out some small apes tonight.
