Thanks, the front fork caught my attention. The fork was a real bear to take apart and reassemble. One of a kind bike.
 
That is one truly sick build!
 
It was shown at Starbird-Devlin Rod & Customs Charities Car Show. It was winner of Custom Class in the Bicycle Show portion sponsored by Tom Sawyer Bicycle Shop.
