Blue MT Wheel mod
« on: May 26, 2017, 09:51:36 AM »
About a month ago I found a $20 MT on letgo.  Looking past the Black Widow nests and a decade of gunk it wasn't half bad.
It was perfect to do a mock up on something I was thinking about doing to my 26".  After a trip to Harbor Freight and Home Depot this is how it ended up.  And yes, that a broomstick on the end of the front leg.  I'm waiting for a 4" pnumatic swivel caster to get here.

 






Thanks Brian, the handles are Awesome!!!




Thanks for looking.

I cant wait to see the front wheel on it. It looks bad ass with them big tires.

Is the front wheel going to swivel?

Dont leave it out on a windy day or you'll have to search the neighborhood to find it, it'll roll down the driveway and be gone. Although I'm sure you have plenty of beer cans laying around to block the wheels.

You'll be surprised how easy it is to move around with a wheel on front.

Like the wheels but I'm not crazy about the metal around the triangle. Maybe paint the wheels red for accent? That is a cool mod.

Swivel yes.  Locking break yes.
