I’m in now too!
Was going to wait for a purchase to arrive and inspect before I started posting but couldn’t stand it anymore
I’ve gotta say that I had a great time in RRBBoff#6.
Found a lot of support and help, so thanks everybody!
It’s an honor to be in with such a talented group of people.
Built a Spaceliner for RBBBoff#6. Put about 300+ miles since last summer.
It’s the most fun bike I’ve ever rode and continue to enjoy it
Learned some things from last year:
Don’t get too crazy with ideas that can’t be self made
Use a classy frame to start
Keep it fresh with new twists on old themes
Wheels make a big difference!
Make something I like and not worry about the contest
Shiny bikes turn heads (expect feedback on this one)
I like designing and riding more than building :lol:
So the plan is to build this CWC Pilot frame I bought last Friday
Have to wait for another week or so to get it, Arghhh!
Not sure what it’s going to look like when it shows up but got my Typhoon for backup
The things I want to add to this bike that the Spaceliner didn’t have:
Better stance, more styling accessories, and more color
Got to figure out how I can ride a bike with “stance” :lol:
The general direction is Bare Metal (kinda) and Slicks (Big and Littles)
Not sure of the details yet (especially without the frame here)
My biggest learning curve is to build my own wheels
Still ordering parts so not much to show just yet
Got a huge bar to reach due to the amazing CWCs that are already out there
(Skipton’s Son’s 24” and Ratina’s 50s CWC to name just two), hope I can make something as cool
Thanks for looking
Steve
