Some celebrities ride a bicycle; others prefer a scooter while drunk (ahem, Mickey Rourke). However, the real hardcore biker knows that if your tailbone isn’t cracked by the time you kick out the stand, you should be booted back into the playpen along with the other dentists on motorized tricycles.
This “hardtail” chopper, made by Roland Sands, is named such because it has been designed around a rigid frame. This means that the only cushion between you and the road, is a set of front handlebar shocks, and a spring on the seat. Brad is a collector of over 20 custom rides, and they get their name, “chopper,” because that is exactly how they are pieced together.
The framework is pulled apart; a few cuts are made, and whatever is leftover is welded back together. Once the job is finished, your reward it to take it out for a spin, and knock a couple of your fillings out over a few potholes.
