Rocker project
Alright Jo straight up and down center of the axle looks to be right at 13 1/2" from my concrete floor.
No problem happy to help. Any other info feel free to hit me up or trustnobody as I got most of my info from him when I did the 5 degree trees.
Seems my shotgun is sorta fixed... Takes forever to air up (2 mins at least) and it's still spongy and won't get stiff but I've got a ride tomorrow so ill either deal with it or roll rigid like last time.
P.s. still waiting on labriola..

I've been waiting almost 4, I was just hoping to have it before I got the shotgun back on since I was due for fluid changes.
No problem man!
hey rockerz, any advice on the fender chop? any measurements? Ive looked at a lot of pics here of fender chops and some look good and some are a bit short for me. Also, what size tail light did you go with? I think ive talked myself into the 26" front wheel but I havent checked on the cost of raking it out and whatever else ill have to change with it. I know it cant be cheap!
Just wanted to say thanks to everyone here. You guys have helped tremendously! That being said you guys know I have more questions. So I found these wheels and I need some input.

Talked to them about the 23" and they said they didn't have narrow glide only wide glide and it would work if I changed to a wide glide front. So if I go with the wide glide front end on my bike I assume that'll work. But as you can tell I am learning as I go.
The rear seems to be the correct size but says its for a 1" axle. I'm thinking the rocker has a 3/4" rear axle but I'm really not sure. If so can this be easily changed.
I really hope they will work cause They are the only wheels I have found that I like that wont cost me an arm and a leg.
Then again they may be a big pile of crap for all I know!
Thanks again for all the input.

Rollin I heard some horror stories about demon cycles. Just a FYI bro.
Those might be ultima king spokes. Check out jireh cycles(no sure on spelling). But I think they are a supplier.
Again if I wasn't across from the beach I'd have spokes but then again I'm to fat to sit and clean 100 spokes hahahahaha

I am embarking on a similar adventure. Bought a 2008 Rocker a week ago inspired by the awesomely beautiful customization I saw on this forum by HD100. Can't wait to get started. Good luck on your build!
Tkurfurst....good luck and welcome to the world of I can't find sh*t for my bike!!
Just kidn. It's not too bad!
Thanks guys for givin me a heads up on demon cycles. I'm still up in the air on what size wheel to go with. I really want a 23 but its a lot more parts and Money involved when I could just get a 21 and change nothing. Guess ill just bite the bullet and spend the money for some ride wright wheels. Looked everywhere for something cheaper but I am trying to keep in mind that ya get what ya pay for. I know several of you guys have 21's on your bikes. Any opinions?
I'm really just wanting someone to talk me into buying a 21. Haha.
