Heist's Build Thread.

[Heist]

gotcha, good thing you're thinking on a grand scale and taking every aspect into consideration. I'm sure you'll take the most logical route haha. Also, I don't know shit about customizing motorcycles, what's the advantage of a "hardtail" aside from getting it lower? To me it just seems dangerous considering you won't have any dampening. I almost crashed my Yamaha FZR-600 at 80mph riding to school a few years ago and haven't really ridden since so I might be biased on motorcycle safety haha it really hit home at the time.

Saves the chain? not much really haha. Sorry to hear about the close call! Don't let it keep you from riding!!!! I'm going to have a springer seat, but the bike build is ultimate simplicity and sketchy fun. Next up is a suicide shifter to give you an idea of what I want as an end result. I treat the bike like I have with my slammed cars... know the roads and focus ahead. I know the dangers, I practically learned how to walk while walking to get on a motorcycle.

There will most likely be a spring on the seat, to somewhat save his spine.

nailed it. Still probably going to vibrate my teeth out and pop my spine out one day

Haha no worries, every time I see someone cruise by it makes me want to ride again. Someday for sure. I like the idea of ultimate simplicity, I take that approach with my road bike (bicycle). It's always good to have your routes and know what's coming up on the roads. Be safe my friend!

I strive for simplicity in everything. What kind of bike? This has been getting me around the last two years since the car has been under the knife.

Fixed gear and brakeless?? best way to roll .....with no fucks given

I bet it's a workout going up hills, lol?

[Heist]

It's really not that bad. I used to go up and down the coast in newport and laguna area (full of giant hills) just gotta keep the speed up. Passed the spandex warriors all the time haha.

So nice, ill have to re-read all of the pages, missed out on a couple.

Nice! Never really ridden fixed myself. This is what I'm riding now, I've been jumping around from bike to bike building what I hope to be the perfect one but something is always missing. Some dude randomly hit me up with a trade offer for one of my other bikes I had posted on CL and it was a deal, and I'm super happy with it. It's a Giant Bowery single speed, I have since changed the seat and put a way shorter stem on that sits a bit higher. My back doesn't like the hunched forward position so I set it up to sit more upright. There are a few more little things I plan on changing, mainly just aesthetics, it functions perfectly for me. I love booking it everywhere on this thing haha.

haha nice! I like your color combo. One of the previous owners must've ripped off all the decals on mine, I actually like the simple black look though.
