Just finished building my Bareknuckle

Just thought I'd share. Just finished building it and I'm very excited about it. I'm out of money so some of the parts I really want will have to wait but here it is. What do you guys think?

What're you using up front? fusion? aerohead?

Whatever it is, everything looks nice together.

Jon,
Randy got it on ebay a couple months back for a ridiculous deal and Corey didn't build it, Randy did.
I remember Corey building a black one up a while back, it's on the FGG.

Oh, and P.S. I don't have any room in my car for the Stupor Bowl.

Was it a black or green?
Definitely a hot bike, either way.

That's a very nice bike there.

I've been thinking about getting a Bare Knuckle frame myself. A blue one. Does anyone have a blue BN? I've never seen one on FGG or anywhere else.

What size is the frame ?

If you get the blue you have to get brown Deep Vs.
Please.

I was thinking white Deep Vs, but after seeing those pics of them in brown, my mind has almost changed.

Yes, I love the light blue/brown combo. It is quite nice. Brown would also look really good on a green frame. Not dark green, like that british racing green frame. Or that green bob jackson on FGG

I love the chocolate brown Deep Vs, but I am slightly skeptical of how they'd look with black tires.
Sorry, Randy.
Let's talk about his bike more.
