Pee-Wee's Big Adventure Bike

Mostly I did not use flash, but twice i forgot to turn it off when taking a picture. Nobody said anything about it though.
 
BTW I also saw 2 sets of nice correct Lightning Darts this weekend for 50.00, which is great price for these tires.


There was a decent set of lightning Darts on the ratrod forum for $50 last night... I had to force myself not to buy them... At this point i have to stop buying parts just because they're a good deal. I actually need to start selling off some of my extras.. Its so tempting to keep buying... But, yes... $50 is a great price....
 
Ruddigger, those are some great shots... That one of the rear hub looks almost identical to the one i got when i was there last week with Abe...:thumbsup
 
I did get some measurements but I've noticed not all of them being so accurate. I've slowly posted some of it. Part of the reason I have not posted it all in one place, is so we don't get another set of DB NYC builders coming it and you know how that goes.. Did you see the episode of ********* Money, Dirty Money on Discovery. That is all I'll say of that.

Jamie, I am sending the seat to them.
PM me for any measurement you may need.

Thanks Abe I get the reason but they can't do anything to us because we are not in this to make money....:love

I will Thanks! :darnkids
 
Wow, I wish you would have bought those lightning darts!

I uploaded my mostly fuzzy pictures from the Hollywood Museum. i dont know how much more helpful they will be, but in the interest of shared knowledge I'll add the link here.

And here is a picture of the "arrow" on the chain guard. You can see that its a cut out with the short popsicle stick things glued on top, and the left side has been painted red.

We were in there with a flash light! and a mini tripod. to get around back, I really need to reformat some images and post them, will do that ASAP.
 
thanks for the pics! anyone have a good pic or made up chart of the routing of all the red rubes from the shifter, brake, black box?

most all my shots are here, I didn't post my old shots from my first trip.
BTW we noticed the bike shifter and the front tire is hitting the case, it's now harder to get shots of the back side.
As far as the cables go, they all route into the center tank.
If you want them to operate something, the 3 speed shifter can move a lever to make the rear lights go in and out.
The brake lever was not used in the movie. I think the Hollywood bike has an extra red line coming from under the microphone handset.
the box line would route wire to the taillights.
Since the bike shifted the black box is also hard to get a dead on top view, which would help for the button placement. If ever back go in,I'll take my real tripod to get around back better.
 
Wow, great shots guys. I'm so thin that I can fit between the case and the wall to take pictures. I almost did it, but I was worried they wouldn't be very happy about that.
 
dude really??? nice joke, there couldn't be more than 10"in that space. your a stick!
Well that is why I used my tripod with the timer, I think the shots I want are the rear of the front fender, straight on focused shot of the button box. A shot of the underside of the BMX lever, also a shot of the rear of the siren bracket.
 
Yeah, I'm super thin. I seriously contemplated squeezing in there, but I didn't want to get kicked out. Maybe I'll do it next time. The underside of the brake lever is a ***** to get because of the angle.

HA ha ha!!! he ain't jokin! he could fit back there! :wacko

I squeezed back there myself I got stuck a little you don't want to lean forward you will get wedged in there!::lol

Im just picturing, going to get that awesome shot of the back of the bicycle at the hollywood museum and getting stuck between the wall and the plexiglass... Then having to wait for someone to come help you out... LOL...
 
We definitively think the bike got moved a bit and thing got moved around in the space behind the Pee Wee suit. It makes the control shots harder to get.
 
Let's hope they used it for a promotion for his new movie the box latch is loose too and it looks like there are more scratches and grease marks on the paint...:unsure
