RAT ROD PROJECT

[goldz56]

i had this old bike and didn't know what to do with it till i found this site. i have no idea what kind of bike it is. it is a 20'' with a 3 piece crank, germany maybe. i decided to ratrod it so i dug around in the barn for some old parts and put it together. here are some pictures. I PUT IT ON EBAY CHECK IT OUT. ITEM NUMBER IS 200140796196. i couldn't figure out how to put a link on here.

WOW!!! Right On!!!! Is the fork functional? Thats very CooL 8)

 

[CCR]

ROCK OUT !!! and yeah, is the fork rideable ??

 

[goldz56]

thanks, the fork seems to work ok. i think its off of an old monark or huffman but not sure. it looks like it should have a bolt thru the center like a schwinn, but thats how it was when i took it off the old bike.

 

[Markm]

a regular springer would have the longer bolt and a set of struts. Does it pivot or is it welded?

 

[goldz56]

it pivots

 

[Markm]

it pivots

...and it rides okay? Doesnt "pop" out?

 

[goldz56]

i haven't rode the bike but when i had the nose off of the spring i couldn't pull the spring out of the back where it is attached.
