Three beards...

Griff · 12-02-2018, 11:52 AM

Frank being a Beard if not bearded.

xoxoxoBruce · 12-02-2018, 03:44 PM

Exactly.

Gravdigr · 12-02-2018, 05:03 PM

Bebops.

xoxoxoBruce · 12-11-2018, 03:29 AM

Fender, strong like Russian woman...

Gravdigr · 12-11-2018, 05:18 AM

Not pretty, but, that makes an embarrassing amount of sense.

I woulda used a big, fat yellow letter Goodyear Eagle, though.

But, I get the use-what-ya-got thang, too.

It would be cooler if it was a pie crust slick.

We calls 'em onion skins. Or an old bias ply Firestone Wide O Oval, the white letter section of the sidewall, would look cool, too.

I'd like to see the rest of that scooter. Exposed battery, some kind of strap for a seat/ass sling, car tire for a fender...

That slot where the... axle... attaches to the frame looks really dangerous, too. A loose nut results in a wildly off-axis wheel.

Unless that nut and bolt sticking out of hte back of the frame does something to hold it in place.

Gravdigr · 12-11-2018, 04:43 PM

Stay right away from motorcycles....you won't like motorcycles.

That adjusts/determines chain tension.

Didja not have a bicycle when ya was a kid?

Happy Monkey · 12-11-2018, 04:52 PM

I may trust that nut to resist my foot's power, but not a motor's... Is that how real scooters/motorcycles attach their wheels?

Again, unless the nut and bolt sticking out the back is what really is holding it in place, rather than the nut on the side.

I'm starting to look forward to the sweet embrace of death.
