Iconic Chopper on Kickstarter

[user 135]

Kickstarter is a fun place to view new products that come to market via crowdfunding. There have been many bike relate ideas that have gone to market from there. The Iconic Chopper is a new one that looks interesting. It looks to bring a rideable chopper to the new age with Nexus hubs, disc brakes and larger wheels. Not sure about the price, but I like the idea for sure.

Pretty nifty looking set up. Kind of weird hearing a guy with an Italian accent trying to sell muscle bikes though. Kinda like a Texan promoting a new Ferrari.

If he wants to revolutionize the industry...he needs to invent a banana seat that doesn't feel like you're riding around on a two by four.

Amen to what Steve said, but that's a cool bike.

Its nice but I think he needs a miracle to get that amount in a month, also when I heard his voice it reminded me of puss in boots from shrek, maybe he needs to do the big eye thing to get his way!

One of the big bike companies will probably pick up on this and make and sell at wallyworld for $59.95. So I wonder is that just a 26" fork?

I have been on the site looking at them many times, thinking of buying one, but it is hard to tell what seat you will get, what base will be used, I wish there was a more complete ordering system for them, including different colours...

Ding! Ding! Ding!

The board is almost irrelevant to me though, I'd probably paint it match the bike....I know, I know...I'm seeing a specialist about it next year.....

Makes me want to build my own 24/20 muscle bike. The Nexus front brake and internal geared hub are cool but I would stick with rim brakes and a derailleur to keep the cost down. I'd rather have a nice stick shifter than the fancy brakes and hubs.
