take a shitty ass fork, cut the top 3-5 inches. then take 1inch-1.5 inch diamiter pipe then cut it to your size on how far the stretch is , weld the pipe to the 3-5 inch cut out and make sure to have about 5 degrees in the trees.

I can build it. just what is it

do you want the look of real chopper style forks or just the rake in the forks? if you use tripple clamps then you can put the degree in the clamps and the forks will have the rake you are looking for, just like on a real chopper.

hey regalistic, go to either http://www.lovelylowrider.com
or http://www.aztlanbicycle.com and look for parts or foeks, then get the straight, not bent, spring fork, should be under 30
