Truss Rods

[XXX]

How’s it going all?
I want to make my own truss rods for my new cruiser I’m building (photos up soon), was wondering if any of you could put up some pictures of different types... I figure I’ll just bend up some rod and flatten one end out with an oxy torch and a hammer and drill some holes through to go onto the axles, however not sure of how to connect it to the stem up top. any photos or ideas appreciated guys.

Keep up the good work, some of the bikes on here are amazing.

One of the better suggestions I heard for making truss rods, is to use Brake line. Esay to cut, drill and flatten.
AS for the upper support, you could probably find an old support by itself on ebay, I know Ive seen them there before... Or you could Just make something out of thin metal, shouldnt be too tough...
