ok i figured before i call it a night i would check here for a problem i am sure a lot of the low riders have ran into.
i recently built my genesis into a low rider/rat rod of sorts and i chose to run 24 inch wheels.
those of you who know bikes know that's quite a bit of drop n height due to the much smaller wheels.
an with that being said leads me to my issue the crank arms are just too long.
everything on this bike is monstrous and very little is compatible.
so my question is this anyone know where i can have a custom set of crank arms built from the originals?
i need them about 3 inches shorter.
thanks for any info.

One piece or Three pcs cranks.??
If your planning to use one pcs crank then use a crank of a 16" bike and you have the option to use your sproket or sider and chain ring..
Good luck
 
Some "Green Machine" or "Slider" trike's have short three piece cranks too... I have some here only 4" long.

Luke.
another good idea the green machine crank arms would work.
although if i get a slider trike i may wanna keep the whole thing and build it up lol i been wanting to do a drift trike for a bit with one of them.
