All most done just waiting for a springer fork from USCHOPPERS and some old school teardrop pedals.
Hope you all like it.

Is that a Roth Reaper frame?

Wait... didn't we meet at a gas station just outside of Shiny Side Up? I remember that you said you had Roth change the chain stays on your frames that you bought from him.

Still waiting on the fork been told sometime around the end of the month. Thanks it rides supper sweet. The balance on the bike is perfect and I can ride it with no hands. On bikes this long thats real hard to get.

Very cool! I like the N.M. Salsa name, it just sounds right for a wild frame like this. I named my custom stretch Salsa Verde (shown in my avatar). Great job on the build!
 
Re: Retro Kustom. N.M. salsa

Very cool. Looks like it's in motion sitting still.

Mind me asking why you're ditching the triple trees for the springer? I have springer on my stretch and want to go the other way. The chrome on my springer is junk and can't seem to get it lined up straight. Doesn't seem to be very good quality but looks the same as everything else out there. I've also thought about just changing it to a black springer since my bike is all black anyway.

We maybe talking about different springer forks. The one I will put on it is from Choppersus here's a link

So it's still a triple tree. Thanks it does look like its in motion one of the reasons why I love this frame.

I see you live east of Austin. I wll be there on the 21 Dec. to spend Xmass with my wifes family. I'm going to bring it with me to ride on the 22 all over down town. They live very close to Jesse James Austin Speed Shop so I will go by and see if I can get something for a friend. Would be cool to ride with anyone from around there.

Ok, that is not your normal springer. Going to look great on your bike.

I do have this same frame built up with smaller tubing and with a what you call a normal springer.

Re: Retro Kustom. N.M. salsa

Yep, that's the kind I have.

I really like your blue frame, looks much more substantial and a little bit more ground clearance. Especially over the design on their web site.
 
Re: Retro Kustom. N.M. salsa

Does anyone know what Roth is selling the frames for? I really like the look of these frames.
