What do you think of this Profile on this frame ?

This was a chopper frame i had i liked the top bar how it flowed but the bottom bar was Ugly !


So i set out to find a nice lower bar and make a prostreet bike , I ended up killing a flightliner from the 60's .

I made a few cuts and had to notch the lower bar in a bit of a pie shape to angle the head tube the way i wanted . Its not very pretty i would have liked it to be more curvy or flowing its just Tached it in right now i cut it apart twice since it was not straight but now it looks good . this is why id like to have a nice jig ,so im not playing games guessing .
Any way your thoughts ?

I like it! Never was a fan of those frames with the crossed top and bottom tubes, this looks so much better!

Thanks Luke i have always been a fan of the long and low even on prostreet choppers , i want to make my own design some day simler to this .

well i Finished the welding and cleaned it up a bit and started to add parts to see how it looked . I was limited on what to use . I may try chaning the tire size in the back , and i do need a new fork that fits it better but over all not bad , its not super low right now but if i change the back wheel to a 20 inch it should be better .

Those stretched Phat frames are unattractive. However, they were one of the very first mass produced stretched frames, so now I like them purely for nostalgia's sake.

I've no problem with you cutting it up, though.

Sorry, I'm in mourning for the flightliner frame.
