In the early 80s there was a custom cruiser boom. Customizations usually involved a tubular fork, bmx bits, and anodized colors. The aim is to build it as a ‘survivor’. As if it was built in the early 80s and left since. Build thread — http://ratrodbikes.com/forum/index.php?threads/schwinn-strand-survivor-finished.105640/
Thanks Jason! I totally forgot to post in the finished section! I finished this quite a bit ago and have been on other builds!
Well, at least you have the bike...that must be at least some consolation for missing out on the voting .
True! It wasn’t really build off intended anyhow. I was building within the time slot and figured why not. Lots of awesome builds to vote on tho! And I will be. I’ve got a frame/build/idea that’s more RRB style for a future build off I may enter. I average about 2-4 builds a month for personal/ flip / customers.. don’t usually remember to take pics and post. Even the Kona I just finished was pretty much built before I thought to start a thread on it. I just aim to contribute what I can to a rad forum that provides me with so much awesomeness to intake!
