It’s official.
A Lengthy Insanity started life as a lightly used fat tire 2014 Mongoose.
It has been stretched and lowered by cutting the rear drop outs in half and cold bending the seat stays, then welding in fillers. (Frame inverted)
Permanent sockets were added to support the sissy bar.
My favorite parts of the build were doing the stick shifter, and lacing the Sturmey Archer fat hub rear wheel.
The custom kickstand.
I also got a lot of welding practicing reinforcing a repop Stingray seat to be adult worthy.
I put some real foam in it.
Front end was a used unit from West Coast choppers.
