I had bought a set of 2.5 wide alloy rims , with a 3 speed Nexus from the big 40%off sale. I had been working on the 4'' wide ones for my bike. This is my wife's . I had to loose the Monarch springer and change to a triple tree , but it looks pretty good and rides nice.

Thanks guys. Wish it was my bike , I would be through now. I really should have bought two sets of these instead of the 26x4's . I could have just stuck them on and been done....instead of having to rebuild a whole bike. :cry: :roll:
 
those 2.5" wheels look really sweet and alot less trouble! 8) are those the threaded forks from choppers us? i wished they would have had at least one item in stock that i wanted at 40% off! :x
 
Thanks John. They were a set of forks I found a long time ago. It was a threadless set and I cut it off and welded a threaded tube on it. :roll:

Nice bike :p Looks real good with those fat tires :D

Thanks ...Yeah my wife was impressed with them till she saw the 4'' wide ones I bought for my bike. She said I want some like those. Hers cost more since they were already built and had the 3 speed on them. I could have saved some coins if I had bought just the rims and laced them myself to my own 3 speed. Oh well :oops:

Hey U.S., I have a PC that's not good for much except going online. Need one?
Thanks anyway I have a regular computer, with a virus. Gonna have to wipe it to use it. Got my wifes laptop ,but man I will be in a world of hurt if anything happen to it and I'm using it. With the way my luck has been going these last couple weeks, I need to go somewhere and have someone shake some chicken bones over me. :shock: :shock:

Those wheels look great. You did a such a great job on that bike. That rear triangle always impresses me with all the curves.

The rims look great, the bike looks great.


Where exactly did you get them?
Thanks . I bought them from that 40% off sale at cyclesus . They were already put together ,wiith a 3 speed nexus for $203...plus shipping.
 
Hey thanks Clancy. I have always thought it was one of my best copies :lol: :lol: :lol: Your right on the big bucks for a mac. The cheapest one at best buy is $1100 eeekkkk!!!! I will probably go back with a Toshiba . They are around $400.
 
Just kinda thinking out loud. We had to replace all my wife's office computers. 3 out of 4 had problems, so we replaced all of them to upgrade to Win7. So, we're gifting some 'puters.They've all been wiped to new, but one has a video card problem. That last one left is okay for internet, but can't do iTunes or bookkeeping programs or Photoshop kind of stuff....
