big wheels


so I'm feeling a bit happier about the whole thing today, I nicked acouple of 21" wheels out of some other bikes and mocked them up, that void for the tank was throwing my eye out so a carboard one was hastily put together to give the bike some solidity and now the bike is starting to form. I think the 21's have saved the day
I even like that front tyre tread!
So, it's just that rake now, half of me is thinking it isnt a replica of anything and with a little more rake it looks a bit sleeker, and the other half of me thinks it's got to come right in
plus although I can derake it easily we have already made a fixed jig so that's a bit of a bugger.
also think those bars are wrong, way to wide.
