In my quest to keep "ROD" in bikerodnkustom, I'm submitting my new Fixed-Gear bike. Like any good rod, this bike started with a left-over frame, and parts from several bikes. And Rods should be chopped and smoothed---so I filed off all the braze-ons and cut out the rear fender bridge. I pulled a rear fixed hub from an exercise cycle and narrowed the rear to fit. I Brazed in a new bridge just above the tire. I re-worked and lowered the front fork. I added Pro-Max V brakes for quick stopping power. Then, I sand-blasted the frame and painted it in a two-tone style from the 1920s. This Bike Rod runs on super-light feather-weight rims. You can also check out more photos of this project here: . |
