I started with this skinny tubed Shogun beater at the markets for $45.

I got the frame powdercoated Satin black and got busy building.

Cheers Tommy - The Avid single digit V brakes sound perfect. I'll look into them now. I'll also work out the tensioner. I've seen a fair few posts on this forum in regards to possible solutions :)
 
wow, not only does your bike look awesome, but it looks like you have some friends around who you can race with.
 
Well done. Love the bikini fenders. You proved that you don't need to chop and cut to make a nice boardie style motorbike.
 
That tensioner is an invitation to disaster:
1) the large 'kink' in the chain will cause it to buckle easily if your engine ever has a tendency to seize up.Then it can get into the spokes,result:nasty spill.Get rid of it and get something more sturdy, shortening the chain would be a good idea too,because that would significantly reduce the transverse force on the tensioner.
