I was glad to score this when it came up.......not quite done yet, ...but its back home.
liberties were taken with some parts,
but it's now a rider.

"It's a rider", but only if you're around 7 feet tall!!!! Lol
Great find, but it looks massive.

 

[C M Gerlach]

Thats funny,......it is tall...26 inches.
At 5' 9" I have a 34" inseam and can actually straddle this frame.

What’s up with the seat you make it a wheelie bike ?

 

[C M Gerlach]

also funny,......if you can pull a wheelie on this, you are an exceptional trick rider.

What are the rim and tire combo you are using?

 

[C M Gerlach]

wood rims, model A hubs, from a 10's mead........specialized 700×34 cyclocross tubular tires.

 

[C M Gerlach]

maybe 700x33...kinda skinny......good enough.

Hi CM, great looking bike. Did you attach the tires with TufoTape?

 

[C M Gerlach]

not yet,......just a short run on this to test on it...... but that's the plan....had good results with tufo tape......good stuff.
