Need to finish the back wheel (lacing a better one up) and design a chain tensioner.

Single speed, coaster brake with rear suspension.. thats going to be interesting. Looks good though. You do all that welding yourself?

Every bike I've seen of yours has been cooler than Miles Davis, and this is no exception.

My Raleigh SC30

I was going to post a picture of my bike today, but I took the photo in RAW format (5.5 MB) which means, if I posted it here, at the maximum allowed size of 100 KB, it would be only 3 inches by 2 inches.

Also, how do I add a water bottle holder onto my bike without having to drill holes in it & screwing the holder on?

Thank you.

Yup, 16's. I also got the back wheel laced up finally. Same hoop as in the front but I have a BMX hub in the back. Lacing a 48hole hub to a 20 hole rim sucks ass.

Go to www.photobucket.com and sign up for a account and upload it, it will resize it for you and will work fine. Thats what I use for all of my pictures.

Also, I believe Nashbar and other online mail orders sell stick on mounts for bottle cages.

I feel like I have a Walmart bike compared to some of the rigs on here, but ah well. I'm sure the boring standard shot of a stock bike isn't very interesting either, but I'm just so damn excited about the bike and the hobby in general.

My stock (and basically new, as the odo shot shows) Kona Blast:





The gf's (also bone stock and new) Trek 4300

I want one of the Blasts, but they're $600 and I don't have the kind of cash to spend. But how good of a bike is it?
