Thanks Jay. I have to make some new handle bars before I can put in wheel wells. The way they are built now, they hit my legs and would push through wheel wells. I need to make them with a short 1" 90 degree bend and run them straight up then. I had to put the fenders back on for now. No pattern, I saw Orin Peters and just winged it from there. It is scary fast down hill! Not so scary fast uphill.
On the flats I would say it is on par with the Mango I tried. Once I get the hood, wheel wells, and wheel covers, it should go a little faster. I didn't start for my daughter's house until 1:30 pm. It was very hot and muggy! But like Doug says, almost every car had their cell phones out taking pictures and I had about 10 nice horn honks and hundreds of thumbs up. Sure is a change from most of my rides.
