Love your bike! Did you rake out the front forks at all? They look slightly stretched? And is it the original tank? Oh, and what length are the rear struts? You've got it pretty perfect as far as rear height goes and wouldn't mind trying to match it ;)

@jonnyqueenbean - got the seat from Western Eagle, it came just a metal seat pan with the springs and all the moulding....

[jonnyqueenbean]

hi where did you get that seat from and is that just a plate under the seat? how did you attach it?

[Bikemonkies]

@Jonnyqueenbean - yes..replaced the springs with shorter bars for the low hardtail looks and a thinly padded spring seat...

[Bikemonkies]

@Jonnyqueenbean - yup replaced the springs with a shorter bars to give it a low hardtail looks and installed the thinnest spring seat that i can find....

@Elmuerteyu - to re-lace d spokes take longer time n cost more too, so i just took d wheels out, sanded d spoke with fine grade sand paper n painted each spokes with an art brush...

[elmuerteyu]

Tell me did you removed all spokes and installed new ones or is it just paint ?
