I thought you might like to see my Chopper. I'm 35 years old so I decided to go with something a little bigger than a 20" model. The front wheel is a 26" ten speed wheel the back is a 24" mountain bike that I made adapter plates to fit a 3 speed hub into. The frame is from 3/4" tube and the forks are from 1" schedule 5 pipe. The seat is a pieces of bent sheet metal with a vinyl cover. Rides pretty good even with the amount of fork rake, and gets alot of attention. Abingdon, Illinois |
