yeah booooyyyyyyy it's all about the lowrider bike.. out here in SoCal, or on the \X/estsiiiiiiiiiddde i've heard of Gangs riding these around, and instead of shooting up other gangs... they get together, and have bike cruises, and the goal is try to out-do the other gang with your bikes... much more productive that puttin' a cap in someone YO !

That thing looks heavy as hell and has so little ground clearance.
HECK YA!! I'd ride it. I'd ride it to work too. That's cool, man.

There is a LBS near me that builds those and nothing else. They cater strickly to the low-rider crowed.
They make some f***** looking stuff. There are some nice looking ones to but it is hard to imagine how some of them can be ridden.

It's all about talent. It takes some real skill to build these bikes. They don't appeal to me but I appreciate the work that goes into them.
I'm thinking that after a few miles of hammer down time you would build up a nice sweat though.

There is a lot of money and time in these rides. Check out this work :
I'd tear that thing up on a trail
LOL, I think those are pretty cool too. A company called Phatcycles has been trying to get the hop to carry their bikes(lowriders like the one in the pic) so we have lots of their propoganda.

looks like you'd have to be Mini-Me to ride the first one.
Where do they park it ? In the "Bat Cave"
