Van's Hog

Van asked us to put together his dream bike using the wonderful platform that is the Hog's Back frameset. His request: use all the super special bits from the USA and Japan; and make him feel like he's back in his BMX heyday. With plenty of Paul Components, White Industries, and Sim Works, this balleur build also apparently wheelies like a dream (under no circumstances should any Bassi bicycle be wheelied -ed). Expect to see this stealthy whip loaded up with some lowrider panniers this summer for weekend cruises outside the city!
