Silly me decided to redo the whole seat frame hoop shape and consequently had to redo the seat pan and mounts as well. I just didn't dig the profile from all angles, and I knew it had to be fixed now rather than after getting it covered. The rear mount isn't my favorite idea, but it works to make things functional and simple to remove when on the side of the road. Also received my new fancy shmancy tires and headlight, so hopefully I can get those mounted up with the quickness this weekend.
Brad has been kind enough to offer tools and his right arm to help out in any way, so I plan to take him up on that. His lathe will make quick work of my axle spacers, while a possible TIG hookup can finish the front brake stay on a fork lower. All around he has become an invaluable asset to not only this run, but the bike I am building specifically for it. I couldn't possibly thank him enough.
