Nice looking bike. I really like the look of the stretch cruisers. That's the same bike that is in the banner up top. Be sure and check the welds on a regular basis. I've had two Micargi stretches and both have cracked on me.

finished dialing her in and a few little touches, painted gas tank (color of bike) shortened the rear fender, pulley clutch mod (way smoother) and some custom pulleys. |

Did you have to bend spokes or just remove some ? |

no didnt bend or remove any spokes. just carefully and slowly used extra long needle nose pliers to carefully place the nuts on the bolts and get them started with the tip of the pliers. then i was able to get a 10mm socket thru the spokes to hold while tightning from the outside (it took about 3 hours)
I wont use that type of wheel again, the people at the bike shop wouldnt trade the wheels out for regular ones. |
