It's been a bit since I posted on RRR. Now that I have a roller it's time I posted a few pics. I just finished up the front suspension, which was the most challenging part of building the frame. I'm not sure I like the front shock angle and there's little travel room (Ya, I miss calculated). I think I'll live with it for now and see how it handles once I get it going down the road. I've been at this off and on for a few years now and I'm hoping to have it completed this summer. Still lots to do but the list is getting shorter.

Over and out,
Sid

Looking good, real good. Nice work. I think you are right on the shocks, the angle isn't that bad but the travel looks like it will bottom out.
I'm going through all the same stuff with mine except I worry my shocks are a little too straight up. In the design as you go process we just have to wait for th4e shake down and see how things work out.
