Very neat! Is there any flex over bumps?
No flex on the bumps. i have a little twist to it when you peddle. but i am working on a cross brake system if it does not stiffen up when i finish boxing in the frame. I have not ridden it yet. i have just sat on it to test it and rolled it around the driveway to see how it feels. I

I have went on the cruiser night a few times with my felt Hurley cruiser. i dont drink so i am not into the bar hopping. I just go to watch the people and check out the bikes.
I have never met anyone from the Kickstand Mag. It would be cool to set up a Free Vintage/Custom bike show with them for the locals Here in Denver If I can find a nice park that is safe for families to visit. and check out the Bikes. Iam sure we could get some sponsors for it.
 
congrats! now that osama is dead, theres room on my "people i hate list" for you. hahah, jk. that bile looks super sick. loving its flowy desighn. :mrgreen:
 
Yo I'll be the first to buy one. Great design. If you add a set of apes on it I'm sold. Keep up the work.
 
There's a few riders who don't drink so no pressure or anything. We also meet up on sundays pretty much every week. Let me know if you want to come out and I'll tell you where we/they're at.

I have GOT to see this bike when you're finished.

PS: I ride my Hurley a bit as well. But I rotate amongst 20ish bikes pretty much daily.
