Re: Fat Fix (Got Paint)
Hey I have tried to watch your video but it doesn't show for me.Uncle Stretch said:Thanks Sean glad you like my work. I get a little better with each one I do.
TRM I didn't like a couple things about the stock one. After riding today , I might have gotten it a smidge high.
It feels good riding, but there is some tippy toe on sitting on it. Glad you like it. Was a fun build.
Here is a riding video. Click to see a fat man on a bike.

It works when I click on the picture. Maybe photobucket was down or something.

Thanks . Most of my builds take a week. I work on them all day though.
Retirement has been good to me so far. :wink:

Thanks King. I am happy with the results. If I go out to the shop and still like
looking at them after I finish, and not want to cut it up, then I think I did good.

All the real fat bikes are a neutral color , so I decided to use one too. Kinda miss my red though.
is up there pretty high. Kinda a tippy toe effect when you stop. With the sig. line you have to keep a sense of humor around
here. :wink:
back gets better.
Yeah Bill I think that was everybody's gripe that the angle was off. One of the main reasons I changed mine.Bill in Houston said:

Well Volt it does better , but there are a few changes. The springer makes it quite a bit different and the seat postthe12volt said:Very nice! How does the ride compare to before?

Re: Fat Fix (Got Paint) (riding video)(photos)
Man thats just plain sharp. I hope you dont cut it to make another. Theyre cheap enough anyway. Great build to watch, thanks for that.

Re: Fat Fix (Got Paint) (riding video)(photos)
Nope its all I have left of my original frame...well the chain stay, BB and dropouts. :lol:
I'm just going to use the wheels on a cruiser frame as soon as I rehab a little.
Thanks Tommy it was one because everybody that bought one was wondering what they
would look like modified a little.

Re: Fat Fix (Got Paint) (riding video)(photos)
Oh thats cool. Ive thought about building a new frame around my 36" wheels without destroying my High Horse bike. Im going to eventually chop up my wallygoose though when I get bored. Oh thats funny...bored. Hope your back feels better.

Re: Fat Fix (Got Paint) (riding video)(photos)
Yeah if I had gotten my BB's from Niagra quicker, I wouldn't have chopped my beast frame.
I couldn't see waiting a weekend and a monday to get them. I would have still had to have
my fab buddy weld them together to make one wide one.
The next frame will be a usual cruiser stretch type. I have the extra BB's now so there isn't a
wait on anything. Won't be too long I heal and get bored at the same rate. :lol:

Did you know that choppersusa carries the wide BB's and axles for fat tire bikes? I have purchased several from them.
