Here's a tall cruiser I made. Someone gave me the handlebars, which is what prompted the build.

My Electra fat lux 7d i finally got back on the road yesterday, new cables, ape hangers, trigger shift conversion, Brooks B190 saddle and Brooks leather donut grips, new pedals. Damn it gets some attention!

Here's a few from member "peterbuilt". These pics are in memory of him.



When I slowed down building, he's the one that inherited most of my parts. He learned very quickly on how to bend forks. He used a 1/2" bender, where I always used a 1" bender.....He passed taking a nap at 42.

That's very sad. What caused his death?
 
He had a heart attack. He used to call me "old man". I'd tell him "Shut up kid". It's been 2 years. His family is doing well. His teen daughters are driving, and one is entering college in the fall.
