the goody 2 shoes

[ron_468]

i built this bike for my ex-girlfriend when we broke up she said it was because i was a goody 2 shoes
i built the bike out of 1'5" conduit, i bent the tubes over a 26" bicycle rim welded to a table. It's all hand-pin-striped and the goldleaf lettering has 23 karrot gold lettering

Nice job Ronnie, pinstripe work, color combo, all nice. Did you fill the tubes with sand, cap the ends when you bent them?

i've been pondering stater... if you meant straighter, I'm still pondering. Filling the tubes with sand, or wet sand packed in and capping the ends, makes the tubes less likely to ovalize or collapse.
