I was talking to people in the Custom Mk thread and it started turning into a muscle bike thread. I have absolutely no problem with that I just think th pics of musclebikes should be in a place where they could be more easely found. So I'll post some of mine, and if you guys have muslebikes please post some of yours.

Heres pis of my Hydeman, my Raleigh ( sold) and my Orange Krate Single Speed ( I now have the correct springer and front wheel on it).

what exactly was the thinking behid the desing of those raleigh chopper frames? was it cost? was it an experimental geometry? why?

My understanding is the Chopper was designed specifically to compete with the Schwinn Krate series. The design of the frame is the way it is for aesthetic and marketing reasons. This of course, does not detract from the coolness of the Chopper in any way. :D

Kev, I think I have the 24" front wheel for a Spyder (with a crummy tire) LMK if you still need it.
