16" as standard, but this particular one didn't look very standard  ;)

factory pilot:
I've seen a few with front(16")and rear(20") skyway tuffs and they look reet enough :smitten
I think if you are going to do a chopper resto you are better getting a frame and forks and starting from scratch.... that was when parts seemed in abundance a few weeks ago >:(

Nos grifter frame would make a nice stable partner for the chopper  :daumenhoch:

Just sold it, it's not my bag really. Shame it's a nice project but just don't have the cash at the min, the guy who's buying it is happy as fook , so it all ends well.  :daumenhoch:
