still gathering parts, almost done. Just need to order a crankset, rims & a chain. Everything else is either here or on it's way. Well, maybe fenders, haven't decided yet on those.

Here's what I've got for the bike:
Electra Bike Springer Fork
26x2.125 Electra Hotster Red Stripe w/Flame Tread Front Tire
24x3.00 Electra Fatti-O Rear Tire (It's friggen HUGE FAT!)
SRAM Spectro P5 5 Speed Internal Rear Hub with Coaster Brake (shifter will get mounted on seat tube and cables hidden)
Brooks B-66 Honey Colored Leather Saddle (Old School Style)
Tioga 1" Threaded Headset
68x113 Truvativ Giga SL Bottom Bracket
Truvativ BMX to Euro BB Conversion Kit
Electra Cruiser Bars
Cinelli Quill Stem Adapter
Cinelli Groove Stem
3T Stem (don't know which of these I'll like best)
Shimano Deore LX 570 32 Hole Front Hub

I still have left to get:
Truvativ Stylo SS or FireX SS Crankset
AlexRims DX32 24" x 39.1mm Rear Rim
AlexRims DM18 26" x 24.2mm Front Rim
Some flavor of pedal - I'm leaning towards Crank Brothers Egg Beaters Ti

The whole frame will get Copper Plated - as thick as they will allow - without any clear so it can age and tarnish
Handlebars & springer will get Blackened - I've gotta find someone to do this, it seems like a cool process
I'm not sure what I'll do with the rims and hubs. The rims come black and one hub is black the other is clear aluminum-probably Nickel Plated
Cranks will either get Blackened or Nickel Plated

that's it for now. I hope the burrs come in soon, I've got a loooooooot of work to get the frame ready. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smash.gif)
