Ohhhhh........wouldnt you know, those are the grips I 'need' for my Pubman...... :wink:
Haha a perfect fit! These things are SUPER comfortable. One of my friends does them for $50 per set for the real stuff-125 per seat and 150 for the combo. He has to lace them onto the bars, so you'd have ship to and from 28676. Let me know if you're interested...

Looks cool !Does it work like a springer? 8) :mrgreen:
 
Re: No Use for a Name...

Yup, just like a springer! I had to stiffen the springs quite a bit so that it wasn't so soft. the extra leverage made it way squishy(the weight of the forks were compressing it almost halfway) so I welded in spacers to compress them. I'd like to move the wheel back closer to the shocks, but it won't allow me to tuck the headlight as low as I want it. I'm not gonna bag it, but I am gonna pin the tops of the shocks so that it'll lay frame when it's parked 8)

Re: No Use for a Name...

Awwww, but it was going so well! Frame design change maybe? I had the same thing happen to me on my current bmx/racer/bobber-thingy build, went through 4 COMPLETE design changes in under 6 hours :roll: sometimes its nice to breath in a nice fresh idea :wink:
 
Re: No Use for a Name...

Sometimes you have to walk away for awhile. Don't scrap it. It'll be a cool bike someday. The bikes you've done so far have been Awesome! Keep it goin! :D
