Alright most of you guys have seen me do this before. I have two hammered Choppers sitting around here, both are MK1's. The boy's is a '69, the girls a '71. The boys Chopper has a broken frame, I was originally going to fix it but doing this is way more fun. Basically the build is the same as the Ross Apollo I did, careful cutting and then welding pieces of the two frames together.
Here are the frames I started with:
The broken boys frame:
The girls frame:
Cut the frames apart and weld together:
The 20 inch fork I got from RetroVintage:
Here it is with a 24" wheel on the back and a 20" on the front. I still need to stretch the front of the frame and figure out how to tie in two the top bars. I thik it will look better with the front of the frame stretched, it looks out of proportion the way it is.
More to come
