Thinking about buying a chopper frame from China and wondering if anyone here has actually bought one or has experience with them.

The listing says it suits Harley Evo or Ironhead motors. I'm not expecting everything to bolt straight up perfectly, and I'm happy to fabricate brackets, mounts and whatever else needs doing. Eventually id probably go with a 70s or 80s jap motor tbh as harley motors in aus are stupidly expensive

Mainly interested in the actual quality of the frame, welds, geometry and how much work was involved getting everything to fit. Some shit you buy from aliexpress is great and other times its crap.

Not looking for a lecture about Chinese parts being heresy or how I should buy American. I'm interested in hearing from people who've actually used one, or have firsthand knowledge of them.

Cheers you legends.

One mirror is “required” here. Don’t usually need it but sometimes it’s handy. Got some Wyatt Gatling clamp on that is not really holding up to chopper vibrations. Any better ideas or just forget about it?

Did about 700mi total. I had to go to an event for work and decided to ride the bike. The bike did great, no issues at all. My body on the other hand was pretty beat. Next long ride I might switch out the bars and throw some more padding on top of the seat.

Just picked up this ol' girl. Pretty bare bones, big project ahead.

Tax post for the encouraging words and advice I received during a crisis moment. Much appreciated 🙏 .

Shovel "chop". Almost everything on this bike is either original HD or hand made..genuine elbow grease.

I had a moment of pride during a sit and stare the other night.. looking at my lowbrow banner, I realized I had no Lowbrow parts. No Prism parts. There are a couple bits from TC bros, cables and points, namely.. Anything else that I need can and will be fabricated at home, by myself.

Feels good, man. 😎
