Default Halcyon Cycle Works Leaf Sping Fork

Here are some nice clear photos of my latest Harley/Indian style leaf spring fork. These forks are fully functioning. The nice thing about this design is a rider has the ability to change the spring rate by adding or subtracting spring plates or changing the length of them.

Very nice work man! It looks a LOT better and more functional than the vast majority of "over the counter" aftermarket springers!

Adjustablity is key - awesome that you built it with that in mind

Nice clean look. It would be good if those of us without welding skills could buy these.

I am not near a pair at the moment but I will say they are the width of a standard 26" axle.
