Bat Bike in Boulder Creek, Ca95006

[biggraham]

Muscle bike build off potential: My Bat Bike!
Could probably use different style sissy, longer crank arms, the bars straightened a little and more teeth on the sprocket....
An easy rebuild, it's just sat in my basement for too long..
Not desperate to sell, kinda want to rebuild her, but as I've a bit of a

bike problem....
$250, it's a one of a kind!

I remember when you bought that a few years ago. Cool bike.

How dose it steer with those forks?
Any idea when it was built..
Have family right over the hill from you....
I need to block myself from the sales threads...

Not sure when it was built.. I wonder if it was one of those ride-on machines outside a super market...
I quite like how it rides, but it really needs higher gearing, it rides better than my bent springer-ed low riders
I dig how it's faded matt black, very Adam West!

I wonder if a 24 rear will fit, might make the fender's detail pop more...

 

[kingfish254]

Sure looks like the rear end is for more than just a 20"

I've a 24" nexus 3 w red trim..the old bat mobile had red on her too, right?

I think its an early chopper/ lowrider build... was it found local to you i may know who did the lettering... real ralph is the man around there.. he was the first pin head to how me a bunch of basics. Hes a great dude really amazing line worker.. and really fair priced

I purchased the frame from a bloke in Michigan a while ago.
