Yeh I agree. I'd try to keep that rear shock and make this thing something uncharted.

Either way fuck yeh. This is winding up to be a monster and I'll be following every step. GL!

I would like to keep the rear shock and swinger, but the chain is all ready rubbing the bottom of the swing arm now. Unless I can put a chain roller on the bottom of the swing arm . I don't know if that would work though.any advise

A solo seat hung off the mount for the mono shock would be way rad--if the tire didn't come up and kick your ass.

Anybody have any ideas about putting another small sprocket or a roller right after the swingarm pivot on the bottom to keep the chain from rubbing the swinger . I was thinking mabey a recessed sprocket at the bottom of the front of tbe swingarm. Mabey lower the shock mount about 3 inches and run a shorter shock , then the seat can sit low just above the shock. Any advice i would appreciate, i want to finish this bike and not make a infinished lawn decoration.

Seat wise, loooks like your gonna have th get creative, Ive seen a leaf Spring used before. I think your on the right track with a chain tensioner on the swing arm. Bike looks like it would rob me in a dark alley. good work.

I wonder if that couldn't be addressed with a piece of round stock and a skateboard wheel.

The spring tensioner would have to be spring mounted, since the chain would loosen with suspension travel

That is what I was going to suggest too. Use one of Lowbrow's chain tensioners and you should be set.
