Suuuuper slack! I hope he doesn't want to go around any corners! Looks sweet. Can't wait until the day that this is a complete build and we do need to not all the detritus to our bikes. Good to see you making some sales. Progress is slow my end...

Cheers dude, it's not actually as slack as it looks in this pic. These were the only forks I had around for a quick build up to check alignment before final welding. Hardtails are generally easier to do, I wouldn't be willing to sell any full sus yet. Are you far off selling some of yours?

Getting there. Working on a bit of a collaboration, hopefully it'll work out his time.

You built a chopper? Whats the head angle?

smalltownboycustoms (Jul 24, 2015 at 14:25)

Ha it's actually closer to 63° in this pic, the forks he will be running are 140, these are 150s. The sagged geo is about 65.5° head angle.

Looks slacker than that, looks like a shit to climb with but a machine on the decents
