Ha! I'd love to see this!

 

[Euphman06]

Found a set of Schwinn script bolt on brakes for the front and NOS pads to add some more stopping power to this baby Also orders a Wald seatpost with a 7/8 top so I can add a modern saddle on it. I'll have updated pics later next week hopefully.

Updated pics here. Trashed the truss rod idea so I would have room to run the Schwinn script canti brakes and hardware. Got a new seat post to accommodate a modern saddle. Here she is!

Cool build! Where did you get the seatpost? I spent the better part of an hour whittling down a piece of aluminum round stock down to fit my 49 Huffman frame. I absolutely hate straight post saddle clamps though. I'll post some photos when I get the rear brake assembled and the wheel installed. How does the fork handle jumps? I put an early tange mtb fork on mine to better cope with the ridiculousness it will be put through. Also need a chromoly one piece crank. Last thing I want to do is suffer a broken crank!
