1928 Schwinn Rat Rod Rider

I really like the lit up jeweled grips. Never seen that before. Inspiring. Nice ride!

Thanks man, it would be a stretch to think it has never been done before, but I've never seen it either.

Love the bike! I might have to use the back lit grips on my rat rod bike! I too love the whole rebellious rat rod scene! Although my pockets aren’t very deep. I can do the use what ya have thing! My bike is a 1934 Hibbard true value hardware champion. I made my tank from flat bar and an old drive shaft. I used copper pipe hangers to attach the tank. Made the springer from flat bar, an old helper leaf spring, and the back half of a modern donor bike. Tail light is a 32 Ford. Head light is from a 40’s spot light with a Harley Davidson fog light. Currently making a chain guard from 1/4” round stock that was salvaged from an old mattress. Used an old key chain skull and some peacock feather ear rings for the front ornament. Found a set of Schwinn 26” s2’s with a two speed auto hub. A prewar bulldog kick stand. Great to see others with the same passion!! Looking forward to seeing more of your builds!
