Driftwood Cruiser IV - Old Dirty Chop'

[dpbrown3000]

Here is the new frame shape - should be able to do alot with this shape. It is built from quartered African Mahogany. The ape hangers are fun but this frame works well with pretty much any cruiser style bars. I want to put a 3 or 7 speed hub on the next bike - may add 2-4* of rake too. I'll post more pics once the bike gets a clear coat and stripe. Happy New Year to all.

Just when I thought you couldn't out-do yourself, BAM! :shock: :shock: :shock:

That's just beautiful, and the design and placement looks mighty comfy and practical. You should do one up as a 'mock boardtracker' with a nice wooden tank and related stylings 8)

Love the frame but not a huge fan of the apes.

How many hours do you have to put into each of these frames?

Very Nice!
When will we see it in O'Side?

C.P. - Soon -I hope. I'll catch up with you when we do. I tried to hit you up on e-mail??? Shoot me an e-mail at [email protected] and I'll get your contact info.

iRide - I'm mixed on the apes myself. My wife thought it was a joke. ?? My 3 yr. old daughter said " dada's bike looks silly". Getting dogged by a 3 year old. Oh well. I will put some flat bars on the next and see what the reaction is. Hope everyone is well.

I like the apes, but that may just be me!
love these wooden bikes you build and would love to see one in the flesh!
this newest one is my favorite so far!

The web site is up - it needs some polishing and I need to add more pics of the bikes, but it is on-line - http://www.driftwoodcruisers.com - Check the "friends" link - Thanks Rat Rod for the killer forum. Also - Bikes 5,6,and 7 are in production - I'm going to do some different stuff with all 3. Check it! Bikes 8 and 9 will both be Black Walnut - can't wait to start 'em.

Someone told me that they saw your booth at Barret Jackson Scottsdale on TV recently.

Haven't watched it yet, but maybe this is it?

Rat Rod, Yep - Speed Channel gave our booth some love at Barrett Jackson - pretty cool. Here are some final pics of bike IV - I opted to go with the beach bars on IV - V will be the chopper. I have some fun builds coming up. Several Walnut bikes and a quarter sawn Oak build. Hope all is well. PB

These are certainly the nicest wood-framed bikes I’ve seen! And a cool website also!

I just got a Birthday card from my grandpa who lives in Arizona and in the card he included an article he cut out of the paper with a picture of you? and your bike. As soon as I looked at the picture I knew the bike looked familiar so I came on RRB and sure enough it was right here! Nice work by the way. 8)
