One beautiful bike... black and red can't go wrong! Love scallops too. Fish or graphic both.

I like the blue one on their home page.

That chop is hot, I was actually just re-reading the feature on that bike from that crap mag Cycle Source on the throne this morning. Lots of cool details, and you hardly ever see de-raked chops being built anymore. Extra points for originality for sure.

Sorry I do not like that chop at all.. personally there is no flow to it and......... its just ugly in my opinion. Granted I never really like what most others like so its very possible this bike is the hotest thing since OCC.

#2 looks good! Similar theme to the one you don't like but different execution. #1 looks like it'll turn into a robot or something and fight other, similar, bike/robots..

The only redeeming aspect I  have ever found on an unraked stretched neck bikes, is the fact that it gives some relief from the wind... JMO..

 To me, they just look plain wrong.. I like streched, a bit of rake, and a helthy dode of SLAMMED... ;D

..like a Donny Smith bike, or Arlens, or Goldammers Low-Tech..

side-bar: I just watched a documentary on Stax records (Isaac Hayes record label) and the company's demise.  http://www.pbs.org/wnet/gperf/shows/stax/

There was footage of an auction for all of Hayes' stuff when he went bankrupt, including the gold-plate-grilled cadillac and all I could think of was ... What backwoods memphis bumpkin bought his chopper???

It's funny but I'm surprised it isn't already here. Even more I'm shock I didn't do it.

Definitely a case where his whole thread deserves posting.
