This is my first build from the frame up. I decided to make a bike without any black in it since that color is found in 98% of all cruisers. This was not an easy task I assure you. After I found the Torker Bermuda frame, it took over eight months to gather all the parts.
I used a combination of old and new with vintage huffy cranks, sprockets and chrome rims as well as new Felt pedals, Nirve handlebars and Duro tires. Shockmaster forks ended up being the last piece of the puzzle. This is the only piece I painted. I may add a chrome bullet headlight in the future.

Re: Torker build

Looks good. I really like it. I think a vintage stem would go well with the look.
 
Re: Torker build

I was just going to post that someone else had done a similar build with white tires on one of these a few months ago that I really liked, too, when I realized that was you, back in October!
Very cool bike - kind of blingy/retro/classy/cool combo! 8)

I never really thought about the 98% fact. I really like the concept and how different this came out. A real stand-out. Nice
