It will never be 'bashed' so it doesn't have to be super strong
What a pile of wank design!
keep it real, superglue and gaffer tape.
Dont modify the bashguard Ed, there rare enough as it is and if it wasnt for Ron one would be impossible to find.
I've got say. I think you are mad. Your butchering a perfectly good frame to make it look like something else. I would sell it on and look for a wal riot. Then get new dropouts made that support the seat stays better.
Don't worry Ed, Marky fix it....clamps is easier, but not as handsome...Gonna be a git though, due to that odd chainstay layout.never mind.MM

'butchering' FFS... its not a Kappy Trickstar! its a 96/97 midschool tank that I'm having fun with... HAVING FUN WITH .... FUN ... it is still a concept allowed in here a believe I got a cheap frame and some cheap parts and I'm doing what I want give a fella a break!And lastly... a 2 hip Big Boy IS a Riot with 'dropouts made that support the seat stays better' ... so I'm ticking all the boxes

But it isn't. I may be made by the bloke and a similar shape. But it isn't a riot!! What you are doing is shocking mate. Yes it maybe a 96/97 frame but it is still pretty rare. And yours is mint!!! If it was an old rider then that would be different. But to do what your gonna do to a nos frame is absurd. I'm surprised no one else has piped up and told you your mad! At least kappys mods were all brazed onto an old frame so they could be heated up and removed without any damage to the original frame. But your on about drilling holes in yours. Which quite frankly is bonkers!!! Ed209=butcher!! Stu... read the first post mate... I never asked for your opinions on IF I should do what I WANT to MY frame... ( which is why no one else is on a soap box ) but you are STILL advocating doing welding mods to an even rarer Riot frame but I'm a Butcher for drilling a hole in my frame.. go figure.It is a totally mint NOS frame ... but its MY TOTALLY MINT NOS FRAME... so wind ya neck in and let me play
