I like the gayleatherseat and the frame...But the shiny post seems to jar between them...
The seat and the frame look the bo shizznat together...Perhaps make it a lo-lo and get that seat right down to the frame?

Could well do. The seat's particuarly high because I foolishly wanged the seat post in the vice to spray it, squishing the top of the seat tube. By the time I realised the error of my ways it was too late. I just put the bottom of the seat tube in to try and bring the seat tube back to shape. The tube will be as low to the frame as the spring allows when it's rolling. Hopefully I'll see it finished before the end of the week. Bikes are so much easier than cars  |

In fact, I should have been working on it tonight but I got distracted by a few bottles of over priced continental lager and this AWESOME website: www.infinitewheel.com/dubselector4.htmlCan't bring myself to turn off the third loop... |

Liking the look, What about some red spoked wheels and whitewalls? Any plans?
Got some barefooting pedals on my cruiser that would look pretty sweet on yours, as they're all black and rubber. Kind of like the plymsoles you had to wear at school. Ahem, I had to wear at school...

Oooo!! Sounds kool. I got Primo platforms on there at the moment, but barefoot pedals sound sick.
I've got to dick around with the BB, then I'm done! Pics soon...

That's a lovely thing, the frame has really cool lines and that saddle is freakin' nuts! (The story behind it made me LOL too!) Look forward to seeing it built up  |

Thanks for the offer, dude! I think I'll stick with the black foamies, though - they came with the bike and I'm loathed to get rid of too much original stuff (the cranks are bent and the chain disc is well passed its prime...).
You're welcome to the old tires, though. They should clean up with toothpaste (the cheaper the better).
