is it a bike?
is it a tank? :LolLolLolLol:

nice, i like it, way ahead of its time with the integrated seatclamp.

profile fireball and seat are jarring though,

the pics dont do it justice, it wasnt sunny out at all today. it shines, especially the pearl white on the bars. gonna get some white pedals.
i was trying to give it like an old hot rod look,like 50s style.
not a tank at all (well not to me,but everybody gives me crap cuz its not 15lbs but i still can blast at the park)
was a more light bike of the day,hell look at the frame weight to say a......chromemoly  2-hip pork, 8lbs 5 oz. s+m warpig,8lbs 5 oz. dk s.o.b. 7lbs 12oz  :shocked:

NOTE: never use pb blaster to help install grips. it melted one of my brand new sparkly red schwinn grips. now i gotta get some more  :2gunsfiring_v1:  :'(

snafu. i bought the chocolate bars (needed paint but with levers) and very true and shiny hoffman high roller wheels for 65 bucks shipped to my door  :shocked:
i find it hard to find 1inch levers. wish they had a reach ajustment as they are a bit of a stretch for my fingers tho
