Chopper

[T Grimble]

This is a little project my brother started this weekend. It is what he calls a mini-bike. It started because he had a engine laying around his shop that he wanted to get rid of. It is an interesting blend of hot rod, motercycle and bicycle parts. I will try to get finished photos when it is done at the end of the week.

How big is that racing slick he's using for the back tire?

I am not sure what the tire size is but it is about 24" wide. Notice that there is no need for a kick stand! The bike stands on its own because the tire is so wide. I don't think it is going to turn very well because of the long rake on the fork and the wide flat tire but this is really more about style then function.
