Western Chopper

[Illiterite Wino]

picked this up recently with a couple other bikes


looks like someone added some ten speed forks to it..used one of the other bikes for some donor parts and threw this together..




pulled the chain back off, and it's soaking in some vinegar
forks shined up real nice.. looks as tho most of the chrome will as well..
hit it with what I had left of my steel wool.. going to the hardware store tomorrow to get some more and some more WD40 to get the sticker residue off the top off the forks and lube it up good.
Seat reupholstered by the handyman's best friend, duct tape :lol:
more pics to come.

Looks like a fun ride! Been tempted to try a 16 on the front instead of the 20? :?:

may have to try that, when i sit on it now it feels like it constantly wants to start wheelying

 

[LukeTheJoker]

:lol: That might be the point! :lol:
Looking forward to seeing it with a 16 though, should give it the Krate stance! :mrgreen:

Trust me man, duct tape is only good when its cooler weather, if it heats up out your going to get sticky junk on your butt...
Ha ha I know from experience, I ducttaped a stingray seat and it didn't work out so well. It stayed together but it was messy is all I'm saying
