Is that polished or chrome? Anyways the last pic, while a piece of welding art, looks like the extreme hard way to convert frame. We could bitch about it for days because we all have different tastes in how things should look. I will stick with solid billet thanks. As for the chrome one it is a copy of this bike AJ built awhile ago:

I agree, it looks amazing!
The picture of polished bike isn't chrome number one and as for a copy of AJ's bike are you fucking kidding me? Do you think AJ is the first person to polish or chrome plate a bike and put black plastic's on it? C'mon I know you must have more common sense than that and don't believe that yourself as for the scheme like the one AJ built it was completly the customers idea.
Agreed, it was the customers idea, buit by S.H. It is the first chromed 500AF I have seen though, you are producing them almost daily so you may have seen them sooner. That was all I was stating. At the end of the day that one was built before yours, but certainly not the first on the planet, I never said that. The chrome/polish makes your already superior welds look even more so. :bling: Buddy did a serious polish job, best I have seen on a frame yet. Mistook it for chrome in the picture. Does it still look "darkish" like most polished peices next to a chrome peice?

Does that eliminate the need to polish the frame constantly, much like the coating on polished 4x rims? It would also eliminate the stains smeared on to plastics as well.

Dude, you need to get your head read man,(you lost more than the seat bolt) I don't care how bad your riding skills are, I was just stating that the frame you butchered and claim is better than S.H. 's may lead to hospital bills. Splices/welds of any kind should be avoided in any curved peice. It would not matter if you were joining two straws. You threw down a shit load of bead right into the first inch of curve in the cradle. It will probably be fine. It's just not right.

I apologize for the personal attack it is completely out of line, but I still can't understand how you figure and I quote: "I just used my own bike as an example...it eats your s/h" when the cradle is scabbed together and mine is 3 SOLID billet indexed pieces.
