ATOMIC PUNK - Build Off bike
Posted: Wed Aug 08, 2012 6:00 pm
I built another bike for the annual Rat Rod Bikes Build Off.
Have a look if you've got a few minutes spare. http://www.ratrodbikes.com/forum/viewforum.php?f=68
Voting just started today..... I don't stand a chance of winning, but am hoping for a Top 10 finish (I finished 6th last year)......not really bothered about where I finish though, as I've got a cool bike out of it.
Started out as a Micargi and I built a springer front end for it, used a vintage style microphone for the tail light, as well as a whole heap of other stuff.
Some build info:
Micargi frame
SunRims Double Wide rims
NOS Sachs front hub
Velosteel coaster hub
3G Boa-G tires with logos removed
Recovered WCC seat
3 piece Redline crank with Truvativ BB adaptor
2 KMC Kool chains.....it's long!!
Custom built springer fork.......yes folks, it works
Wald bars cut in half
Bargain bin grips and pedals
Austin "Flying A" hood ornament with green LED lighting
LED converted vintage headlight
Vintage style microphone tail light
