It is here and I would have my own pic of the bike up, but he is trading in his old Schwinn and keeping his old seat so there is no seat on it right now.
It is getting a 49cc 4-stroke jackshafted to use the 7-speed, keep the rear disc, and get around the fat tire.

I priced it for a 7G but I think I might put this new 10G short shaft I have designed for use with a SBP shift kit, it's a heck of free transfer case upgrade but if anything it is going to test it's endurance because this is the high torque demand build for it.

Besides his original seat, it is also getting a back rack, harder than it sounds with a fat tire but TryMe (my local 'MB Friendly" bike shop) had just the thing so he bought that with the bike.

I'll have to put my self funded projects aside for a bit, this custom build is paid cash in advance, the only way I work.
If I get the price wrong because it takes more parts or time so be it, I loose, but the funds are there for parts and I don't ever need to mess with some payment 'due on delivery' issue from someone that didn't have enough money for what they wanted to begin with, and still don't.

Just a tip for you guys that want to fund your own builds by selling other builds.
Build 'em right regardless of profit, but get it all up front.
 
Thanks, it turned out to be a pretty cool build and the customer is thrilled, says people comment everywhere he goes ;-}
 
I'm late to find this build - where did you find a rear bike rack that would straddle the tires? I've been searching for one as I want to mount a go-kart cylindrical gas tank on a rack below the seat. It's one of the few parts I still need to complete my assembly. Thanks, Steve
 
My local bike shop had the rack for ~$35, it is meant for bikes with disc brakes, the lower connectors have offsets wide enough to keep it away from the tire.

Sorry, I didn't note the brand, just that it is for disc brakes.
 
KC, thanks for your response, I'll check with bike shops in your neck of the woods. I've admired your work for quite some time, and hope to do a Sun Crusher once I complete my current project...Steve

Thanks Steve, the Sun Crusher is a really comfortable bike to ride, considerably more comfortable than this Slugo.

The tricky part is getting a sealed bearing BB wide enough in the thing.
Other than that it will even take a 4-stroke.
