The previous owner had made a modification to the fender and bent the seat bracket up to make a backrest. High marks for ingenuity but a little short on looks. (I added the wood just so I could get a sense of what was comfortable).
I had a fender with four large holes. My first thought was to replace the fender. Then I decided on a new project – off to the drawing board.
I’m very fortunate to have a CNC Mill and Lath at my disposal at work. After the first trial did a few changes to the backrest attachment.
Went to powder coat. After most of the day yesterday making plastic washers to protect the Powder Coat and finishing touches to the spring guides finally finished.
A little clunky looking but probably won’t see to many more around like it. Functionality is excellent.
Also have a bag that mounts to it for longer rides. Need to test that.
