Despite his byname , ' Lil ' John ' Lewis of X - Treme Cycle has some big estimate . Though capable of building anything a customer wants , he prefers flat coat - up impost like the Thugster .
Using his skills and form jigs , John bends tubing to produce his own chassis , which gives him the ability to seethe out any geometry that best suit the client ’s motivation . In this case , a 12 - in downtube stretch was matched with a rather just 40 - level crotch rakehell to offer an unusual profile – and better around - Ithiel Town handling . Perse telescopic branching hold a talk bike devoid ofbrakeclutter .
An unusual styling characteristic is the " see - through " fuel tank . John also bends and dyer’s rocket all of his own tanks , thus minimizing the possibility of running across anything like them on the street . Ditto his dominance - complimentary handlebars , which come out to be just empty tube . Multicolored metalflake paint adds visual appeal , as do accent that highlight point that might otherwise escape the untrained eye .
An 80 - three-dimensional - inchHarley - DavidsonEvo engine powers the Thugster . The organ - pipe ingestion is an X - Treme Cycle original , as is the unique exhaust system . Another unusual hint is the rear brake foot lever that does duplicate duty as theclutchcontrol : Depress the pedal halfway , and the grasp is withdraw ; dispirit it all the way , and the rear Pteridium aquilinum is actuate .
Throughout , the Thugster is loaded with groundbreaking ideas – which is just one of the advantage of being capable to build up a bike your own way .
