that all looks great. *grudge*
perhaps i try to make my own buke in the sommer..
but i don't have a "bending-machine" so that will be really difficult.
i just painted mine and put whitewall tires on.

You can draw your idea 1:1 in paper. then you see all your curves and
you can take them on metal work shop or some metal school and they bend your tubes whit low money!

| olli how do you weld your bikes? I recently restored a 1953 Peugeot bike, and noticed that all joints were done by brass brazing - I guess because it heats the metal less than CO2 or other welding, so it's less likely to crack? Am I right? Now I'm doing a 50's three-wheeler for my kid, and frame is also brass-brazed. |

Old bikes are often made whit brass "weldings". I use just Mig or Tig welding.
