As a nine year old kid in 72 told my parent's I had to have a krate bike. I got this kit, it was assembled with tears
Wes, What sad story. Well, now you can build one with pride because a Krate in original condition now will be even more expensive than it was in '72! -Doug
@@RightOnReplicas it wasn't the money, I couldn't sit on it and reach the ground. Which was ok, in 74 I got a brand new YZ80, I was throwing rocks at the bike crowd.
Wes, Sounds like you had the last laugh! -Doug
The front fork was called a springer front fork .
great build .
I keep coming back and watching your videos to help me build some of my model kit's .
thanks again
Roger, That is awesome. Thanks for watching! -Doug

Haven't built a model kit in decades. My wife bought me this for Christmas and little by little, It's coming together. Connecting the forks is an absolute pain. I'm going for the high sissy bar option as it was popular when I was riding such bikes. I'm at the 8:30 point right now.
Over, Thanks for sharing. It sounds like you're having fun. We love it when the prodigal son comes home - to build models! Thanks for watching and please subscribe if you haven't already, to help us continue our mission to inspire more modelers! -Doug

Chris, That's right and we'll keep 'em coming! -Doug
Keep the video coming I enjoy watching your build on model kits.
HS, Thanks we''l keep on truckin"! -Doug
Coolest bicycle ever built. I had an Apple Crate. Learned how to wheelie on it in the early 70's. Mine was one of the later without the castration shifter.
RB, Spot on my friend! -Doug
I had the Grey Ghost Richard ! ...... but I'd take my next bike my Orange 10spd Raleigh Chopper ! Nobody else had a 10spd stingray style bike back then.... my friends though I brought home a space ship when they took a look at that sweet ride 😉 ! Overall the Krate bikes had a little better look but that 10spd trumps everything..... needless to say I loved them both and then my following blue Schwinn Varsity 10spd road bike ! Even for a big road bike I could do great wheelies and ride no handed for miles... even around corners 😉
Great memories.... awesome bikes ✌😎 Keep healthy & stay safe everyone !
Thanks for the video Doug. You did a fantastic job. I am glad I picked up this kit and will now have to build it! -Mark

What brand paint glue and paint did you use? I read it needs only a certain kind of glue and paint, but can’t find what brand to buy.
I just heard super glue, what brand of paint? Thanks in advance! Nice video btw. I will watch this as I’m working on it!
Kelly, For this model I recommend Testor's orange tube glue for parts that need to be adjusted for position while the glue sets. Parts that are a precise fit can use Superglue. You can use Testors or Model Master spray paint for any plastic model. PS, please help us reach more modelers by subscribing if you haven't done so already. -Doug
What company was the real bike made by,in the UK we had the raliegh chopper
NC, It was actually Schwinn! -Doug
What are the dimensions of the model? Online I can only see the box dimensions

Any specific type of paint and color to emulate the Orange Krate?
David, Testor's orange enamel spray is a close match! Thanks for watching and please subscribe if you haven't already to help us reach more modelers! -Doug
Thanks, Doug, very much.

Thanks, Doug, very much.
One year only the grey ghost , not a big seller , compared to the Apple Krate, Lemon
Peeler. Orange Krate, and the Green Pea.
Rick, Thanks for the info! Thanks for watching and please subscribe if you haven't already to help us reach more modelers! -Doug
My dad yelled at me Agian for some stupid reason
Simon, Sounds like a good time to build a model! -Doug
I play way too much play station
Why would anybody buy a kit of a bicycle?
MW, To get to the other side, of course! -Doug
What a stupid comment
the tubing looks out of scale and ruins the model....some thin wire would have looked better
AM. You are right but we use the kit parts so you all can see what it looks like! -Doug
