    Good. But out nowhere, you sprung "The material" not previously mentioned.
    I have several of those. Is there a "material" with a stripe down the middle?
    Also, does the "material" limit the foam thickness??

    Yesterday I found a 1975 schwinn lowrider complete that was headed to the scrap yard. Thank you for this video, it’s gonna come in handy

    Hey, I didnt get if you have to hold the material tight and stretch it over the pan or not? 😉

    That metal frame is horribly uncomfortable you could have used thicker foam.

    Yeo thank you for these videos.
    Found a 72/73 stingray with GT fan mags sitting in a boat shed just rotting away, it still looks good for a 70s bike but it’s rusty, you’re helping out a lot.
    Either I’m gonna paint it blue with white wall gt fan mags or green with color matching seat
    I’m excited
