Hello, . I would like to submit a few pics of a custom lowrider bike I built last year. A couple of years ago, my dad and I went to an Easyriders show in town, and I thought it might be interesting to build a bicycle that looked like a custom chopper. So one year, and about a thousand bucks later it was sitting in my garage, finished! . The frame was stripped of its original metallic flake blue and sent to Franklin Frames to have a new head tube brazed on. I needed it raked out a bit more than the original. The crown jewel of this beast is the springer front end. Once I got my frame back it was ready to put together. The rear wheel is a 24" and the front is 16". The tank, seat, fender, and spoiler (near the crank) were fabricated from foam and fiberglass. I painted the bike with House of Kolors paint and flakes; and pinstriped it with One-Shot. . It's truly a head-turner cruising down the street; and fun to ride!
Thanks,
