Designed to fit bicycles equipped with 20-inch wheels, offering proper clearance for standard lowrider/cruiser tire sizes up to around 20 x 2.125 (depending on tread profile). Keeps the correct low-slung stance for traditional lowrider geometry.
- Steerer: Threaded 1 Inch (22.2mm ID)
Made for use with 1-inch threaded headsets and accepts 22.2mm (7/8") quill stems. Uses an adjustable race and locknut to secure headset preload. Fully compatible with most vintage and lowrider frames designed for 1" threaded systems.
- Steerer Length: 143mm (68mm Threaded)
Suited for the shorter head tubes common on 20-inch frames. The threaded section measures 68mm, providing ample adjustment range for different headset stack heights. To ensure proper installation, the head tube plus headset stack height should be less than the usable unthreaded section so the locknut engages the threads securely.
Heavy-duty steel legs, linkage arms, and mounting hardware deliver strength and authentic ride feel. Steel naturally dampens vibration for smoother riding and is well-suited for both cruising and display use. Welded construction and sturdy rocker arms are built for durability.
- Axle Size: 3/8 Inch (≈9.5mm)
Dropouts are sized for standard 3/8" front hub axles, which are the most common type on lowrider and cruiser wheelsets. This makes it compatible with most 20" lowrider front wheels without modification.
Features a mirror-quality chrome plating that captures the timeless lowrider aesthetic. The plating resists rust when properly cared for and pairs perfectly with chrome rims, cranks, handlebars, and other polished components.
Side bars feature the signature double square-twist pattern, measuring 18 inches in length, adding bold style and matching other twisted accessories like sissy bars, seat posts, and pedal cages.
- Model: Double Square Twisted
This model features a double-piece square twist on each side of the springer assembly for a clean, traditional lowrider look while maintaining reliable linkage geometry.
- Suspension / Function: Retro Springer
Equipped with a coil-spring suspension to help absorb small bumps and road vibrations. The rocker arm linkage provides the signature springer motion while keeping the wheel’s forward stance. This design delivers both comfort and eye-catching appearance.
Typically used with rear coaster brake setups. Some versions allow a front caliper brake via a center bolt hole on the fork brace—check your specific fork to confirm. The brace hole may also be used for fender or light mounts. No V-brake or cantilever posts are included.
- Headset / Compatibility Tips:
Works with standard 1" threaded headsets. Match crown race diameter to your headset for proper seating. Ensure your frame’s head tube length plus headset stack height matches the available steerer length. Accepts 22.2mm quill stems for handlebars.
Perfect for lowrider, cruiser, and show bikes where both ride comfort and classic style matter. Pairs best with other twisted chrome accessories for a coordinated custom build.
