    Looks like the tall front, dropseat bikes are becoming the new fad. I don’t see how anybody can ride those things.

    ALf, you might be able to reach the ground but at 4′-10″ you won’t be able to reach the handlebars. ;-)

    Why do people keep sending in these half done bikes? Is this really as much as they ever accomplish on these builds? And Bando. Is that supposed to mean something?

    what did you use for the jack shaft, “shaft”?? looks like a trans shaft? are you going to machine spacers so the sprockets stay where their suppose to? did you put the outer bearing on the threads of the shaft, or did you turn the threads off first? just wondering……………….thanks for sharing

    Thats a really nice looking bike for a shorter person,I get the idea behind the low seat and frame mod.
    The front end is really very nice and the bars suit it.The rear end looks way cool.
    The welder could use a few tips but at least he had a shot at it.
    Over all wish I had something that looked that cool,enjoy it bro well done.

    Hey Alf,
    Good to see you are willing to build ‘your’ bike, I have to say that while I really appreciate the builds people are putting together I really don’t like ‘cookie cutter’ bikes where one looks like the next. That is more for the FAT trye crew in my view. Keep building what you like, and enjoy the ride.
