Something I built

[Larmo63]

The 1927 Mead Ranger with the Ghisallo Italian wood rims finally on it, just got it roadworthy, great ride actually.

You know, when you are building something and you think it all out and you expect the best and you have issues? I had No issues, it rides great! problems.....

One more, I'm stoked.....

Thanks, after building this one today, the speedbumps are frustrating; the "NOS" chain with the broken links, the weird old threads that seem to slow your build-up down at every turn, this OLD crap, I swear, nothing fits as it does on 40's and newer bikes, still challenging and fun to piece together and make somewhat straight and rideable....
