[@franciscomontesdeoca5316]

Nice bike

[@Elhamburitto]

I "stretched" a bmx tire onto the rim of my Schwinn chopper and swapped the front wheel for a 20" and it looks lower and badass

[@x2tb]

Very inspiring for my own project. Looks sick!

[@whoisthisdude2034]

Can you show how to replace the spokes on the back rim for the chopper

[@Gwatts78]

ALL RIGHT, ALL RIGHT, ALL RIGHT. I FUCKED UP THE PAINT. NEXT. lmao

[@ShantellRichardsonCS]

Love the color

[@obeysonic42013]

What kind of brakes do you have in your front wheel? Nice build 👍

[@j03l45]

Where you get the white walls been looking for some for mine

[@Bobs-yer-uncle]

Did you replace spokes would you happen to know what size spokes for the rear wheel im needing to rebuild mine thanks

[@phodailey]

Nice bike! What seat and post did you buy for your chopper?

[@shunderchappell1062]

Super nice.did the front forks come with the brakes,or did you have them added on?

[@fullautocare4403]

The forks are original to the bike.

[@GhostRiderSpiritOfVengeance]

Looks great! I'm halfway through mine and struggling. Did you have anyone to ask questions to when you ran into problems? Seems like all the activity from the OCC community is from forum posts dating around 2012

[@fullautocare4403]

I called the guy at Pedalchopper.com when I needed something. He has everything, he's really nice and he builds these for a living.

[@907vine]

Where did you source the spokes??? Nice paint btw.

[@fullautocare4403]

I just sanded the spokes and painted them aluminum. Thanks

Where u get tires

[@marcoesco91]

What handlebar are you using?

[@brandondanganan6662]

Really cool conversion. You ever think about attaching a electric or regular motor to it ?

[@fullautocare4403]

Hi and thanks. I like it as a pedal bike, so I won't put a motor on it.

[@DanielSmith-bv5fq]

@@fullautocare4403 way to go, brother I’m with you, I’m very hesitant to touch an original unmolested OCC chopper, I must admit of all the bikes I’ve owned (at least 15) the OCC chopper is the roughest riding and heaviest bike I’ve ever owned, But absolutely the coolest bike I’ve ever owned. Sometimes cool comes with a cost… best$200 I’ve ever spent on a bicycle. Great for a sunset ride, but not general transportation.

[@marquelwebb9889]

What size tire and rim is on the rear and front of this bike? Looks awesome

[@fullautocare4403]

20x4.5

[@keyda1andonly]

@@fullautocare4403 I looked on the website and couldn't find the tires, also are both tires 20x4.5 or is the front still 24x2.10?

Where can I get a replacement rear rim

[@storkyscustomcreations7520]

Great job on the paintwork looks sweet. Did you apply the copper directly over the candy green in order to get the effect?

[@fullautocare4403]

Hi. I used a color changing paint from the store. I put it over a green base. A friend of mine said that if I put it over a matte black base, that the copper comes out a lot more

[@storkyscustomcreations7520]

@@fullautocare4403 so you used a flip tone, ive used many flip tones and pigments over the years gloss blacks usually the base but really depends on what effects you want. Im really impressed with your results, are you using a 2k laquer or just standard spray cans for sealing? keep er lit ;)

[@fullautocare4403]

@@storkyscustomcreations7520 yea. I didn't know. I originally did the bike candy flake green, but I messed it up twice, so I went with this.
