Default Re: Morini Time! Full sus project!

Look at the pict with the Morini hanging in the frame. The seat post will never ever get cut out of this bike. The back half will be removed except perhaps part of the cantilever curve. May be gusseting that sect to support the shock. As for the infamous pivot point that is built further forward off of the new rear end. Putting it inches from the output sprocket of the engine. It is by no means going to be a in frame shock design any at all. I taking advantage of this rear end for its tire size 26.2.7. My intentions are to take what I got and make it work. The parts that I have bought etc Is the end of the line this is what I will be making work! I am surly a poor man at this point.

One of my friends made a suspension seat as you mentioned on a Orange County Chopper. It came out nice on the chopper. Thats is not my vision for this creation though.
