Schwinn lookin bike

noid P4190865 587x440 Schwinn lookin bike

Decided to go way different with this xs. So many look alike… including the one I built for myself with the exception of a single downtube I decided to make a frame with no straight lines on it at all. I looked at my pedal beach cruiser and decided why the hell not.

Frame is done and ready for paint all there’s left to build is a fuel tank for under the seat cuz there will be no tank on the back bone and a whole lotta little odds n ends to fab up. If anybody wants something different in a frame send me a picture and I can make it fer ya.

    This one is for sale when it’s done. It is painted,the engine has been cleaned up and runs great,gotta rebuild the carbs that go with it and build an underseat gas tank to make it go. Not looking for a ton of money like some people when they sell these. Just enough to make it worthwile and have a little leftover to buy more steel to start another.

    Bruce that looks very badass. this coming from someone who builds frames for a living. I’m really digging that drop seat. That’s what a true drop seat is to me. Nice work man

    Send me an emal if you are interesterested. I can build a frame around any engine as easy as an xs. I prefer to make each one it’s own unique thing. jigging up a bunch of the same hardtails is a bore evilempirestudio@gmail.com Thanks.

    If you send a neck that you have a title for I can hand build a frame exactly how you like…. within reason structurally…. and send the whole thing back.

    I am selling a curved xs rear for 250, basically like a standard rear but curved rather than the normal straight with bends.

    Man you must have one hell of a brain for geometry, – and a hell of a tallent for bending tubing…- Not to mention Guts for doing something So One-Of-A-Kind….It is for sure I still prefer a straight frame…- but I am none-the-less Hat’s Off To YOU for ability and skills…- And Balls…lol…
