Re: Anything goes "Muscle-Bike-Build-Off" Build thread.
That blue looks really nice Lucas! I can imagine with the black instead of chrome it will really make it pop too! :mrgreen: Mine wont have much chrome on it either, mainly because everything, even the bars, I am making and there is no way I can afford to chrome them!
Actually it is another of my modified car rims, this one is made from the narrow side of 2 16x6's, came out at 16x3.5, that is about as narrow as I can build one of these and still have the dropped centre functional for when the tire gets fitted... The Cadillac bike has rims made the same way, but they measure up at 16x9 and 16x4...
Cant wait to see your frame start to take shape, really looking forward to it! Did you get your rims and tires sorted?
