My first Firemans...direct from Greg himself. 26" wheel size here
I bought the frameset and added my custom touch...This is Beer Rescue Unit #2. Member Cracked another frame - Sean is the originator and deserves proper credit for the rescue craze!

Wow very well done, really like the color scheme..
Remember the Alamo!! isn't that a brand of beer?
Good looking Beer rescue unit for sure!!
think we need to organize a Firemans Cruizer cruise sometime, I want to come down and see you all sometime! and rescue a few beers myself.
thanks for posting this incredible bike!

a few more pics...the drive train on this bike is super smooth and the chain alignment is perfect which makes for a whisper quiet ride

Pretty Close to a Smokey and the Bandit tribute bike, loving the black and gold look!
they were beer rescue units too right?

really nice. i want a seat like that.

Nice job James. The seat fits perfectly on that build! That is my aim with my custom seats - the perfect finishing touch - and I do think we have that here. Can't wait to see your next build.

Nice cruiser

What size tires are those?

restoredude · 2012-09-17 3:16pm

kenda 1.95 on both front and rear
might be the krad model???

Code4130 · 2012-10-27 9:38pm

Is there any room for a bigger tire in the rear? It looks like the 1.95 fills out the chain stays when the wheel is slammed forward. I'm building a FTC now and shopping around tire sizes, I want to run the wheel all the way forward. Thanks

BTW sweet ride I dig your style

i would say no more room for me but like you said i have the wheel all the forward...but for you.....mount any size tire, adjust for clearance then make you chain to fit. reverse engineer it.
