Here some updated pics. All that is done so far is the shortened turn signals and some axle sliders. I want some frame pucks, a pipe, and this cheesegrater gone. Well onto the pics. Nothing special but I keep it clean

| I know there is some type of print on the outside of the sliders, but flip the wheels around so the locknut is flush inside the wheel. | |

| I actually bought a nut with the spike tip. Thats why its sticking out. In person it gives it like a chopper look. | |

not my cup of tea, but if you like it good, a lot cheaper than buying them off some site, like I had said.
Keep the mods coming. |

| I did exactly the same thing with the skateboard wheels.... How did you center the whole thing? I tightend mine so they didn't move but not squeeze the frame. | |

| wouldn't the acorn nuts sticking out make the bike want to flip if it was sliding? I'd think you would want the nut to be inside the wheel, or at least somewhat flat / slightly crowned | |

That is my concern, along with added danger to the individual would or may be injured more.
Those Acorn nuts can easily catch on a crack and flip the bike causing more damage rather than allow it to slide and safe it from further damage. |

| Good decision, not to dog on your individualism but if you want them to work as they should the acorns have to go. | |
