Looks like someone needs to make a fender to match the rake change. Beautiful Work.

That wasnt my first choice of fender, the one I had ordered didnt make it into production yet. This fender (sinister) isnt a 90* angle so the bottom is level, but the front isnt. It is actually growing on me, it allows more of the wheel to be seen and the fender its self doesnt look huge

Here is the one I had originally ordered, but didnt get. This is a prototype, I wasnt crazy about the back of it, kinda looks like an Elvis sideburn!

so I gather the 26" was one of the "few changes".

Looks really, really nice.

Yeah, I was going to do a 23" but decided they look too much like a 21" after seeing so many of them.
