Peace Love and Choppers (Finished)

[johnp.smith]

Pics coming when I get time after church. I love my choppers and am starting with a 2005 Kona Bikehotrod chopper. That is not misspelled, that is the name of the bike. Some parts I have are silver and some are gold but they are all cool. Good luck everyone. My last entry was in 2009 with a Schwinn Chopper. That bike was sold to a friend who took it to Burning Man

Here you go... On Photobucket click the IMG link, it should say "copied" then come back here and hit "ctrl V" and it should paste into your message. Nice bike! Good luck with the build, Rg

Copying and pasting doesnt want to work on this, I will figure it out. I have a fleet of unique bikes I will get pics of

I was looking at the same style wheels for my Rebels Cause build. Really like the look.

 

[johnp.smith]

I originally bought them for my Ellsworth Ride Commute to make a wild cruiser. But then my job changed and I needed a bike with gears to commute on. So I put the stock wheels with the 3 speed back on it. They are the only black and gold parts I have, everything else I want to use for this build is silver. The wheels are set up for an 8-10 speed cassette. I have a single speed conversion kit on there and will only have a front brake. Hollister is all flat so it will be fine for short cruises to the coffee shop in style

I saw the single speed conversion, if I could make them 3-5 speed I'd buy a set.

One thought I had for them was to put a cassette on them and run a derailer, could make an awesome muscle bike if you could make a rear disc brake mount.
