Just a heads up....
I lost the FreakBike Nation domain's a year or so back. I never got notice to renew until the day that I needed to renew it. Of course I didn't get home until after midnight. By the time I saw the email, someone else had purchased the FreakBike Nation domain and wanted a fortune for it. This is why this board has the address that it does.
I finally found a website builder that I'm happy with, Wix, and I'm in the process of building a new website. Because of the domain loss, the website, and eventually the forum, will be known as the FreakBike Asylum. We have purchased the domain name.
Please take the time to give it a glance and then either send me an email our comment here. Good, bad or ugly, all comments are welcome. I think that once you see the page, you'll know a little more about the direction that we're going.
Also stay tuned, we will be ordering FreakBike Asylum shirts within the next couple of weeks!

Hi Chainy Are you going to shut down this forum?? ----------- Just wanted to thank you and for all you do in hosting the forum. And promoting Freakbikes in general on the web. --------------- Just curious, if you like the name freakbikesinternational.com it is a natural off shoot of the Freakbike Nation I just checked and it is available. People already think we are crazy for cutting up perfectly good bikes just for our own fun. Chop On!

Hey Junky, No, I plan on keeping the forum, but trying to find a different board. I want to go back to the phpbb forum like we originally had. This ProBoards is easy to set up, but doesn't allow for much. I talked to a friend who thinks that he can help set up the phpbb board for us.
I thought about the FreakBike International name as well as the Nation of FreakBikes or the Nation of FreakBikers. I'm still up in the air about what to choose for the new forum. The FreakBike Asylum is gonna be mostly a photo gallery of finished bikes. The forum, I have decided, to try and keep the board for us to post the different builds, talk/gossip and ride or club info, basically keeping everything the same as we're use to.
Junky, your a big part of the FreakBikers, what name would you like? FreakBike International, Nation of FreakBikes or Nation of FreakBikers? I kinda like the Nation or FreakBikers because it focuses on more than just the bikes.

Hi Chainy
One of the great things about building Freakbikes is you just do what you want to do. Nobody is going to tell you how to make a freakbike. Make it to suit yourself and no one else.
Same thing with the website, do what you think is best and rest easy that you made the right choice.
I like "Freakbikes International" I like the worldwide aspect of it. It would be nice to visit some Freakbikers around the world someday.
Wherever you ride, we ride as one.
Chop On!
