    Are you going to cut and weld the steering head for a steeper rake?

                Just wondering what handlebars and hand controls you're using? The bike is coming together! Very impressed!

                    Thanks mate, the buttons are MOTONE 22MM SWITCH 3 BUTTONS and the handlebars are just a set of clip ons.

                      I know Ed, I had to edit the originals to be able to post them so cropping them was the only option. Any idea what I was doing wrong?

                        Eh, the forum doesn't allow/can't host bigger images. For that, you'll need to use an external image hoster. Personally, I use imgur.
