Born Free Build Update

Here are a few progress shots Josh took of the Ironhead we are building for BF5. Still lots of fabrication left and little time to do it.

Frame Progress

We have been working hard to get this frame off the jig and into a roller. Here are some updated pics of the progress. Also note Zach's crazy tig pedaling skills.

Pedal between the legs



Axle Plates

Here are the axle plates Jake machined for the Ironhead frame. Uses a hex cap bolt into a threaded axle.  Simple and clean.

Ironhead Frame

Here is the start to the born free 5 ironhead frame. We incorporated a wishbone in both the down tube and the vertical tube. Plan is to make it as low and skinny as possible. More to come soon.

Neck Tube

Jake finished machining the neck for the Ironhead frame. It's machined to hold the bearing seats, so bearing cups are not necessary. Stay tuned for the beginnings of the one-off frame.

New Project

We have started a ground up build. Goal is to have it done and take it to Born Free 5. Zach is building a frame around a '68 Ironhead and making a one off narrow springer. The beginnings of the build are shown below. Jake turned down and cleaned up a stock cast rear wheel, which will eventually go out for powder coating.
