Built this from a 20inch Hawthorne tandem. All running gear is from a West Coast Choppers bike. Handle bars are 25 in apes. Seat and sissy bar are from a Sears Spyder 500. Fork is from a (?) 24 inch MTB. Paint is layered primer, then wet sanded and satin clear coat.

Looks good, I like the color combo...good use of a bike that might not get used otherwise. More comfortable too...................
