Well Ladies and Gentleman it's been a long time since I looked in on everyone,so my son and I decided to take his "big Mo" branded chopper and do a chop and stretch job for a hotrod show that was ment to be on last week but was canceled some time ago but we said we would still build it and post on the organizers fb page,this is only the second bike I have welding been done on it and the first bike I have actually chopped up,the seat and frame panels are from skateboards I cut up,I used 4 pull down bars from broken multigyms as the extension rails,cut up a chainring for the separators at the back of the rails,I cut up a couple of lowrider bicycle exhausts and only needed to file them down a bit to slot into the end tubes,I used curtain rod ends for the ends of the lower rails,again I only needed to file down a bit to slot in,the seat cushion I used a thin bit of pegboard and glued a bit of foam camping mat to it and cut up an old polo shirt for the material and stapled it up and glued it to the shaped skate deck seat which is anchored to the bent over tab originally used for anchoring the mudguard to,I used the rubber bushings from a skateboard truck as a pivot point,I used some springs from an old seat I had attached to a some flat steel welded to the top rail which also helps strengthen the rails/frame to give some shock absorption,rear wheel dropouts are from the original frame I just cut them out and angle grinded a better shape,the bike stand arm is a rocker arm from an old cheap mountain bike rear suspension and bolted to the original brake bosses,the front wheel rockers are from a diamondback bike rear suspension,the struts are an old sissybar I cut up and twisted the ends to fit the fork brake bosses,I chained up the apehanger bars so they didnt move as these bars have been lengthened using heavy tube and the stem I used hasn't got a good clamp surface
