Hope you all had a great Christmas, been hot where I live 25 C (That's 75 F in America) been down the beach with the
family, nice! This afternoon did a bit on my bikes
Doing another cruiser frame, really like these frames I'm a curves man for sure. Want to go for a semi chopper look on
this one,mild extended forks cranked front fork stem, laid back seat post, banana seat, sissy bar and of course low.
Started with a standard cruiser frame, have done a few of these and I find the seat post often seized in, simple fix cut it off and
fit a new one at the same time lay the seat post back, like that laid back look, here she is after cuts on some 26 inch rims.
Here is where I'm at today all welded filled and primed, going for red as a tribute to my brother, he's a read head!
Got a couple of handle bar options may go apes although have to admit to not being overly keen on apes, donno why just
me!? Also sissy bar may go long or short wait and see how she looks when put together.
In this pic you can see the cranked fork stem and the laid back seat mod. Had some spare lengths of tube so used them here.
As I said I love a good curve, didn't go as far as my Long Low and Slow bike (Link below) you can see a theme I guess.
