Awesome! Let me know if you need any stock parts as you go, I have bins of them! I cannot wait to see this 175 back rode worthy. Good luck Zeke!

I know it did not get any record... I have yet to push it yet - but I figure it will do the ton - right at it!

I too want one! a brand new bike that I could tear apart and make into anything I want! first things first, the wheels need to go - needs spokes!
