Project RE hardtailed

There was a photo of Project Royal Enfield in the back of the LDV, but here are a couple leaning on it. The tank was bought from Jason. He had it custom made for one of his bikes, but he was never happy with it. It was made by the Tank Shop and it isn't their best work, it has to be said. It'll look great on the Enfield though.
Co-Built welded on the Bird hardtail loops we got from Lowbrow Customs. Co-Built also made the rear wheel spacers. The Rear brake is PM on an A&A hanger. The bike is back with us to make a few decisions about footpeg position, rear mudguard, seat and the front wheel clearance. I want that rear seat tube cutting and repositioning. Looking good so far though. G

are you sure you realy need a brake, or a rear mudguard for that matter, LESS IS MORE remember.

It's a road bike. Only the suicidal ride on the road without a brake. We're having too much fun to be suicidal. G
