I am a systems engineer (Computers) For the truss rods I did not feel like paying a stupid amount of money for a clamp so I just made a copy out of a huge stainless steel spatula that I never used. I bought some electric grounding harnesses and some cap bolts from home depot. Total cost about 8 dollars.jimo746":1od4fc5n said:

A great thread, looking forward to the next instalment. This opens up new horizons to people like myself who merely bolt bits together, and I even struggle with that!

On the original bikes with bladed forks they offered additional stiffness. On this bike they are nothing more than a style element. The Tange Champion fork I am using is one of the strongest forks you can get. I made the truss rods so they can be easily removed if needed. I do plan to get the frame painted because the steel is showing through and it would rust away if left unprotected. Maybe I will get you guys to do some photoshop paint schemes for me.classen":vkjozua1 said:
