Very cool! That seat is awesome, fits the bike perfectly!
I may have missed the post earlier, but did you mention how you will be braking that big wheel yet?

Luke.

I have not said. I know that I'm going to be using the coaster brake on the front wheel, but I'm still not sure about the rear. I'm thinking about just making a spoon brake. A spoon brake would not be the dominant brake to use, obviously, but it would stop me quick when I needed it.

Cool. Feel free to try the washer disc brake mount idea I use if you like.

To get the washer straight and level I just used two welders magnets to hold it straight to the hub while tack welding it from the back.

Excellent start,have enjoyed your builds in the past...
 
Oh yeah, Luke's disc system is slick! Do it...
Of course the front brake ain't gonna flip this bike.
Unless you're doing a 50mph downhill gravity run!

Lookin' awesome! You're starting another bike too?
I ain't even twisted a wrench yet...

Just catching up n this build!
MO FATTA MO BETTA!!!!
 
Any progress Deven? Really looking forward to seeing this one happen!

Luke.

I had temporarily put this build on hold, as for some reason, I wasn't feeling the final shape of the frame. Not being able to pinpoint why, I just set it aside, thinking that it would come to me. It still hasn't, but it doesn't matter anyway, as I've had to take myself out of build mode for a while. I'm in clean out and sell mode right now. I hope to pick this back up with time left in the build off.
