A quick mock-up to see how the shortened fork Will look. Used 26"wheels for the mock-up because the 24's aren't ready yet. The fork as low as possible. Almost all the paint is sanded off the frame. Tried to strip the paint off with paint-remover first,but that didn't work out. So a little...

I've found it between some old steel. But i know it has come from a moped like the one below. The link down here shows a similar handlebar. http://www.easyparts.nl/showarticles_in ... zwart.html It was 81 cm wide,because it was to wide for me i've cut off 5 cm at each side.
