Hmmm . . . . A wild guess would suggest the "chopper craze" started back in the 40's (maybe earlier) and it appears guys are still building and riding them today.

Looks awesome! After riding my buddies 23" SG, I dont think I will ever go over the 21" front though. I love the way the big wheels look but the 21" is just more practical, (for me) it handles and rides decent, and it still looks great, so until I can afford a 2nd bike that I can build just for show... I will most likely have to stick with the 21" :-( I do love the way the 23", 26", & 30" wheels look though... and hell its what make all of our bikes different!

ya chad left us mr im too cool for a 26" and gota go to a 30 ahaha

my opinion on the "fade" is it will be around a bit longer since well the big wheel bikes are comfortable and usable unlike a chopper that after 75 miles you were ready to to the chiropractor.

here is mine pre sex change

LMAO,,, I actually like the look of the OP's bike and the bike overall looks awesome, just wondering where it will eventually lead to and what is the max wheel size someone will run with, kinda like that guy with the outrageous apes, someone will have a 50 or 60" wheel just because they can...
