Heya guys :)
been a while since I hav been on here , so I thought I would jump back on and do a (re)introduction .
I live in Melbourne Australia.
And own the Aussie store "Locolowriders"
I do build a lot of different styles of bikes through the store ... but my fave passion is most certainly...
Thinkin perhaps MAYish 2010
I wood love to make my way over to the states!
Thats our quiet(winter) season, so im hoping to good look in at the shows we can only see on tv or on great forums like this one
and perhaps make some contacts for my shop "LocoLowriders" ...
Perhaps even bring a fu...
There is a social ride coming up on September 20th (sunday)
SEPTEMBER 20th
10am
CARILLON TOWER (a short ride from the cbd)
Starting with a ride around the lake via: Kings Bridge, Questacon, Weston Park, Scrivener darn(pitstop) and then back around to the CBD by 2pm-ish
Then having a meet and...
indeed we have riden to a fu of the shows(myspace piks) at "kustom" now ...
2 or 3 off the top of my head:)
some of those bikes mite hav been ours
frogg_y @ loco
as i also ride motobikes, i like the rear brake on the rite side as i use it most ... fitting the front brake on the left so it feels like i use the clutch as i come to a hault
hey all ...
thinkin about a set o 24" paralel apes so it shal be tall and lean, but i wood have to feel the ride to c if i like the nu set
i dont think there is a hole lot more i can do ... at leest without changing it to much
i just dont wona take away from the frame and forks :)
thanx for the questions guys ...
the front forks are made from 2x 16" dragster forks with the fork fitted as standard and the front set simply floating on the kicker and springs
these are also easily changed to 20 or 26" forks for more of a drag/raked look if needed !
indeed there is a hinge...
hey from OZ :)
just wanted to show off my new 20" raty
hand built in australia
I bought it for $500au which i think is around $320us ?!?
the crank is a bit low for riding at the mo, but after a bit o werk from me it shall be sweeeet!
shall be set so i can change from 'show' stance to 'ride'...
I thought it would just be easier to post this link so peeps can go and see some of the events and bikes in Melbourne OZ via our myspace...
so click the link and you can browse through our folders for the shows and rides that we have both hosted or attended ...
VERY TIDY ...
here in melbourne OZ we dont get the veriety that the states get, so we hav to make the 'different' looks that we want:(
congrats on the finish
