They are a set of Van-K kart wheels. Home
The problem is that there are no rear hubs available for a sprocket or brake disc. I will have to make a custom rear hub on the lathe.

Thanks, I have to make my own hubs anyway so I can use anything.

They really are top class:thumbsup::thumbsup:

Time to modify the frame for a swing arm. :grind:
The frame will also get stretched about 8 inches longer and 4 inches wider.

The neck was not straight from the factory but it will get corrected. :hammer:

I hate to say it but it is time for me to throw in the towel on my bike build.
Work has been great and we are super busy but it has forced me to work out of town a lot. During the past few months I think that I have more nights in hotels than at home. Also I have to leave for China next week on a 2 week work trip.
There is no way I will complete my bike on time so please withdraw my entry.

On a brighter note, we will see everyone at Windber.:thumbsup:

What are you going to ride at windber? The Tom Thumb:laugh::laugh:
