Ruff Tango electric build

Just completed this Tango build today. Powdercoated transparent copper.

That's very attractive. I'd like to do a bike in copper and ivory someday.
What's the story on that girder?

Thank you. the Regulator fork from Ruff cycles.

The attention to detail on your ride is downright amazing!

I quite like the Sparta theme.

Yeah the little bronze helmet is very nice. I want to steal that so bad I feel guilty.

The shifter lever is pretty cool too.

Anyhow, while you may ride a Spartan, when I was a child we lived in a Spartan.

I’ve seen them with wings as well but I’ve never flown in one. Heh heh heh…

I have been studying the design of the Ruff front end and I find it has much to commend.

Do you feel it might be sturdy enough for a bike, rider and cargo maybe twice as heavy?? Having to boost the spring of course…

Could the pivots and arms take the extra load if I nearly double that spring?

Sorry for late reply. The regulator fork is made with strong steel and is very sturdy. It should handle anything I would think.
